Founded on February 20, 2007 the Central Kentucky Student Chapter is unlike the usual student chapters. This chapter is not affiliated with a particular university. Rather, it is an area-wide student chapter open to all undergraduate, graduate, and private students in music who are studying in the central Kentucky area. Our purpose is to promote, perform, and create new music. Our first meeting took place on Sunday, March 4 at 1:30pm in the Niles Gallery of the Fine Arts Library at the University of Kentucky in Lexington. If you are interested in joining, please contact:
