The WRS Board of Directors endorses and adopts the American Recorder Society Special Statement of Inclusion.
ARS has an overarching goal: to build a cohesive community of recorder players. Our members come from many different backgrounds, which keeps our community strong and vital. We denounce racism and are proud to welcome everyone to our membership, as well as to all our affiliated groups. We firmly believe that #BlackLivesMatter. We pledge to continue striving to create an environment where each member feels they are embraced as an integral part of the blended music that we all make together as a community.
We welcome discussion and suggestions from the ARS community on ways to be as inclusive as possible.
