The Percussive Arts Society is the world's largest percussion organization and is considered the central source of information and networking for percussionists and drummers of all ages. Established in 1961 as a non-profit, music service organization, our mission is to inspire, educate, and support percussionists and drummers throughout the world.

The Missouri Chapter of the Percussive Arts Society is committed to promoting the percussive arts through our Missouri Percussive Arts Festival, Missouri All-State help videos, masterclasses, competitive festivals, and concerts throughout the state.
