Submit a cover letter of interest outlining your qualifications to jwha@jwha.info by February 15, 2023.
Remembering
JWHA member and scholarship winner Kathy Fallon passed away in November 2022. So many people knew Kathy Fallon as an amazing musician, but fewer knew of her contribution to Restoration history as a scholarship winner and presenter at the 2019 annual conference in New York.
