Wallingford Swarthmore Music Association


The Wallingford Swarthmore Music Association is a group of parents and music educators who support the WSSD music department. We seek to improve the inclusivity, diversity, equity, and accessibility of the music programming in the district through communication, outreach, fundraising, and programmatic support.

Our main initiatives are the Heart Strings Program, the Concert Closet, and the Archival Project. We also maintain a list of Frequently Asked Questions to help those new to music programming or to WSSD to better access the department's many offerings. In addition, WSMA supports the George Slick Fellowship and Jack Hontz Foundation.
