Ray Shows and Nancy Oliveros are the founding members of Artaria who created Stringwood and serve as its Executive Directors. Along with their esteemed colleagues Annalee Wolf and Rebecca Merblum in the Artaria String Quartet they guide this distinctive summer chamber music program that welcomes young artists to the Eagle Bluff Environmental Learning Center annually from all across North America.

This activity is funded, in part, by a grant from the Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council through an appropriation from the MN State Legislature with money from the State’s general fund.

Artaria inspires humanity through chamber music performances and education, mentors individuals as they express themselves in a multifaceted artistic landscape and gives voice to important compositions of all past and living composers.
