What a Raquette Music and Dance

What a Raquette Music and Dance What A Raquette Music and Dance supports North Country performing artists, ensembles, venues, and patrons.

Please reach out to Anna Campbell, President at 315 323-0813 for more info. WARM was organized and incorporated under the laws of New York State on January 8, 2001, by Don Woodcock, Gretchen Koehler, and Beth Robinson, all residents of St Lawrence County and long-time members of the northern New York music community. Over its 13-year history, WARM has sponsored and/or coordinated a variety of dan

ce- and music-related workshops, classes, and performances. Performers, teachers, and workshop leaders have included local and regional artists, while most participants and audience members have been residents of northern New York and adjacent areas of Ontario and Quebec. WARM events have served a total of several thousand attendees. During its earlier years, What A Raquette focused on directly providing events for the public. WARM continues to offer events to the public, most recently with Chamber Music Evenings. These events are designed to provide an informal opportunity for mostly non-professional musicians in small, informal music groups (mostly duos, trios, and quartets) to gain performing experience by playing for each other, rather than for a formal audience. Since 2010, WARM has also been exploring ways to provide support services to other performing arts organizations. For example, WARM has acted as a grant conduit for NYSCA grants to the Northern Lights Orchestra; is currently surveying area music directors about the usefulness of a centralized means of coordinating schedules and locating musicians; and owns a sound system that it makes available to organizations and performers for a nominal fee. The board has also considered but not yet taken any action on ways to function as a parent or umbrella organization for performing arts organizations that have not yet established or don't want to have their own corporate identity, as well as ways to help organizations meet their needs for legal, accounting, insurance, etc, services. What A Raquette is not a membership organization, so there are no annual or periodic membership meetings. What A Raquette's bylaws provide for a board comprised of between 3 and 10 directors elected (or re-elected) annually.
