Pacific) and, Tuesday only, organ division at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church (24th and Grand). A campus map highlighting Musicfest locations is posted on our website. A $5.00 Festival Program with names of entrants, times and locations of all classes is available at the check-in desk for each division (Ballet, Brass, Flute, Organ, Piano, Reed, String and Voice).
