Austin Piping Society

Welcome to a new aspect of our outreach to the Central Texas Area. We are hoping that our approximately monthly meetings will be a place where pipers of any level can get together to perform individually or in small groups, initially on bagpipes (highland, small pipes, etc.) but could consider whistles, flutes, etc. if there is sufficient demand and interest.
