Gloria Faye Dingus Music Alliance

Gloria Faye Dingus was the founder of Drum & Strum Music in Old Town Warrenton. She dedicated her life to spreading her love of music and often gave away instruments and free music lessons to many in need. We were organized in her honor to continue her music legacy by providing instruments and music instruction to children in need. Previously funded through the concerts at Drum & Strum's Listening Room, Gloria’s in Old Town Warrenton is our primary fundraising arm. We serve the community as an entertainment center, art gallery, educational facility, events venue, and community gathering place. We run a concert series several times a month which is free to children and also receive proceeds from performances at the Listening Room at Drum & Strum Music. Funds also help refurbish donated band and orchestra instruments to children whose families cannot afford to rent or buy them. Help us carry out Gloria’s legacy.
