Who We Are

The Louisville Guitar Society is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization committed to promoting guitar music to people of all cultures, ages, and abilities in the Greater Louisville area through concerts, masterclasses, and workshops. 

Our Purpose

Providing class-based guitar instruction for all through the LGS Community Outreach Program. Supporting and raising public awareness for guitar-related events and issues in the Louisville area. Creating a network and resources for guitarists and guitar aficionados in the region. 

Find out more about what we do on our website. You'll find info on our Louisville Guitar Orchestra, Guitar Ensemble Invitational, and our 2025-2025 Concert Season full of performances from both world class guitarists and amazing local professional and amateur guitarists.  

Our Goal 

This year we aim to raise $4000 in order to begin establishing and supporting more middle school guitar clubs throughout Louisville and the surrounding region. We see this as an underserved domain that is highly aligned with our mission. 

Below, you can find a cost breakdown of what a typical club needs. Our goal is to remove as many barriers as we can while maintaining the highest quality of opportunities. 

10 students meeting weekly for 12 weeks. 

Guitar: $180 x 10 = $1800

Gig Bags: $30 x 10 = $300

Strings, Footstools, and tuners: $43 x 10 = $430

Teacher: $50/hour x 24 weeks = $1200 

Total: $3730

Remaining $270 for printing and instrument repairs.

We invite you to be a part of creating musical experiences for the youth here in Louisville. Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a difference.
