Approaching Presenters with Confidence: 2026 Workshop Series

Approaching presenters for performance opportunities? Led by Pamela Freund-Striplen, Founder and former Artistic Director of Gold Coast Chamber Players, this workshop explores:

• Connecting with presenters and understanding their priorities;
• Curating programs that can grow your audience and keep them as engaged listeners;
• Positioning your music so that it best reflects your mission as an artist. 

Pamela Freund-Striplen offers practical guidance on building professional relationships with local and national presenters, so you can engage with confidence.

For over three decades, she led Gold Coast Chamber Players as Founder and Artistic Director, developing over 150 unique concert programs and multiple educational initiatives.
