The Michigan Accordion Society, was established in June, 1996, by a group of accordion enthusiasts and professionals as an association for promoting and sharing the music of the accordion. Currently there are over 200 members. Their first purpose is to promote the accordion as a beautiful and versatile instrument which is capable of accompanying music of all types, from classical, jazz, and rock, to the more traditional polkas and folk songs. Their second purpose is sharing accordion music within our communities and beyond. Our monthly music events include professional artists and amateurs playing a variety of music. All members and guests are encouraged to participate in our “ACCORDION JAM”.
