The Ola Belle Reed Songwriting Retreat pays tribute to Ashe County, North Carolina’s National Heritage Fellowship Award and IBMA Lifetime Achievement Award winner. North Carolina and nationally renowned songwriters on staff are excited to share their techniques in craft and art with you. Whether you are an experienced songwriter or about to write your first song, these retreats will help you add skills to your own magic, with detailed concepts, practice and instruction. There will of course be stories and anecdotes along the way.
The Ola Belle Retreat weekends will be virtual online experiences on Zoom.
Special thank you to our sponsor The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers.
