SAW includes a community service component whereby we offer free music concerts performed by our members to groups with limited access to the arts. We are currently planning a series of shows for people in the blindness community and possibly for juvenile detainees and senior citizens.

If anyone is interested in participating in SAW Serves in any capacity, please send an email to sawserves@saw.org.
