The String Industry Council is a division of ASTA that works in
partnership with teachers and performers to support string education in
America. Council members include suppliers, distributors, retailers,
manufacturers, organizations, and companies who are committed to
providing teachers, students, performers, and all customers with the
highest quality string products and services.
In addition to the recognition company
members receive by being a member of the Council, some companies choose
to increase their visibility with the individual members of ASTA through
a variety of avenues, including sponsoring activities at national
conferences, sponsoring awards, providing instruments and accessories
for the Instrument and Bow Outreach Program, assisting ASTA chapter
activities, and donating prizes and services to the Silent Auction.
These initiatives work to support the National Foundation to Promote
String Teaching and Playing, which in turn works to support programs and
individuals in need.
Since its creation in 1997, the
Council has grown to include more than 150 company members. The
following directory of companies can provide you with a variety of
products and services that will help you with your daily teaching and
performing needs.
