Special thanks to the Title Sponsor of the National Scottish Harp Championship of America – Clan Currie Society. The Clan has generously agreed to sponsor the National competition through 2019. It is especially rewarding to be supported by a clan with such an ancient and distinguished history of Gaelic poets and musicians.

Clan Currie continues to sharpen its focus on the arts and not only sponsors our competition, but also has established an annual harp scholarship at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in Glasgow, Scotland. To learn more about Clan Currie, go to: http://www.clancurrie.com/

Hope to see you there!
