Free Piano Available to Good Home

A generous community member from the Prince William County area (south of Woodbridge) recently called the Academy about donating her two acoustic upright pianos to good homes. If anyone is interested in accepting this donation, please contact us asap.

Donated piano

The pianos (pictured above) are basic acoustic uprights. The piano itself would be free of charge (to a good home); however, the recipient is required to pay for the moving expense using a professional piano moving company, which averages $300-$500 depending on the distance travelled, number of stairs involved, etc.

If you think you have a need (and a space) for one of these pianos, it’s a great opportunity to look into. As per usual, we will handle this on a first-come, first-serve basis. Please email us at [email protected] (no phone calls please).

Email Issues With Verizon, Yahoo and AOL

It has come to our attention that we have recently been experiencing intermittent email delivery issues with verizon.net, yahoo.com and aol.com email account holders. For our program participants/ parents, if you would like to provide an alternative email account to ensure program communication delivery, please let us know!

The cause of the issue is not known at this time, but we believe it is a larger problem beyond the Academy. We welcome any insights (we know we have a lot of IT-minded constituents!), and we will let everyone know if/ when the issue is resolved.

To provide a new and/or alternative email address, either call the Academy office at 703-993-9889 or send an email to [email protected] . Isn’t technology grand?
