UWRF Day of Music
On Wednesday, Nov. 5, high school students are invited to spend the day on campus and experience life as a music student at UW-River Falls. Teachers and parents, you're invited too!
Attendees will learn about music at UWRF (auditions, degrees, ensembles, faculty, etc.), attend classes, sit in on rehearsals, take an applied lesson, go on a campus tour and more. We look forward to spending the day with you!
