Creativity Club is a weekly meeting of young composers and those interested in uncovering the mysterious process of musical creativity.  Within a supportive environment, students nurture their skills in music composition and other innovative approaches to problem-solving.  Creativity Club culminates annually in a performance of new orchestral compositions performed by the South Dakota Symphony Youth Orchestra.

Students involved in any of the SDSYO ensembles are able to attend.  Meetings are held on Sundays at 2:15p at Augustana University, room 145.

SDSYO DONORS
