Aidan Iams
Folk Harp & More
Hello! I’m Aidan — harpist, teacher, and luthier based in Central Ohio.
I love all things harp, and I am so excited to share some of that joy with you! At my day job, I help keep musicians up and running as a violin repair specialist in Columbus. I also serve as the resident harp technician, assisting with string changes, regulations, and minor repair work. After years of self-study and solidifying a good technical foundation, I am happy to offer harp lessons for budding harpists of all ages. I teach absolute beginners up to intermediate players, with a plan tailored to each student and their specific goals. I look forward to meeting you!
