Our bylaws state the following purposes:

  • To promote handbell ringing in the Greater St. Louis area.
  • To act as a resource in planning handbell events throughout the year.
  • To be a source of communication, coordination and networking for the St. Louis area handbell directors, ringers and enthusiasts.
  • To sponsor an annual Handbell Festival.
  • To sponsor educational ringing events.
  • To uphold the purposes of The Handbell Musicians Of America (AGEHR) and Area 8 AGEHR.

Membership in the Handbell Association of Greater St. Louis does not include membership in AGEHR.  And neither does membership in AGEHR automatically make you a member of the Handbell Association of Greater St. Louis, even though we support AGEHR and its purposes which are very parallel to our purposes.
