Who We Are

The Foothills Acoustic Music Institute is a registered non profit organization set up to promote and encourage the learning and playing of acoustic music including bluegrass, fiddle, old time, celtic, traditional, celtic, folk, swing and blues. FAMI is run by a volunteer board of directors.

Each year FAMI hosts Workshops in May and August as well as a Jam Camp at the end of September or early October. These camps provide encouragement to beginning and intermediate players in a workshop setting, while also providing the more advanced players an opportunity to play in a band environment or just share their talents with others through mini workshops, facilitated jam sessions or one on one.
