Welcome to the Treasure Coast Chapter of the American Guild of Organists
Enriching Lives Through Organ and Choral Music
About Us
We are a local chapter of the national not-for-profit organization known as The American Guild of Organists (AGO). Nationwide and abroad there are approximately 300 chapters. Our chapter serves the Indian River, Martin, and St. Lucie counties of Florida and surrounding areas. Our members are professional musicians, educators, choir directors, and amateur organists and enthusiasts from all walks of life.
The Treasure Coast Chapter carries out the mission of the American Guild of Organists locally by sponsoring workshops, masterclasses, scholarship awards, recitals and other activities to promote the continuing education of organists and choir directors, as well as to create a fellowship of all people who love the organ and organ music throughout Indian River, Martin, and St. Lucie counties and surrounding areas.
JOIN US! If you're new to the AGO or new to the area, or a returning member, please be sure to visit the AGO Headquarters website and register your membership there.
