🎻 Pass the Fiddle, Share the Music 🎻

The Athens Old Fiddlers Foundation is collecting gently used violins to place in the hands of musicians of all ages. For over 90 years, the Athens Old Fiddlers Contest & Reunion has celebrated music, family, and tradition — and now we’re making sure that anyone who dreams of playing the fiddle has the chance to begin.

Do you have a violin tucked away in a closet, attic, or under the bed? Whether it’s child-sized or full-sized, beginner or advanced, your gift can help a new fiddler — young or old — discover the joy of making music.

✨ All sizes and skill levels welcome.
✨ Gently used instruments preferred

(we’ll handle the tune-ups if needed).
✨ Donations are tax-deductible through the

Athens Old Fiddlers Foundation.

Your violin might be silent now, but in the right hands it can sing again. Thank you for helping us keep the music alive for generations to come. 🎶
