Projekt Bayern is a non-profit organization in Leavenworth that supports the Bavarian theme, supports many local projects, and enriches the town's artistic culture. With their generous donation, they have made it possible to bring top entertainers to LIAC and increase our scholarship and competition awards.
Frank Calapristi memorial fund
Barbara Calapristi, daughter of Frank Calapristi, has generously donated to LIAC in honor of Frank who loved Leavenworth and the accordion festival. He was very important in keeping LIAC going all these years. Please see the bench at the gazebo that the family is having built in Frank’s honor. Also enjoy the Frank Calapristi accordion parade during LIAC. Frank Calapristi (1932 – 2021) will always be remembered.

The Northwest Accordion Society is so appreciative to be remembered in the estate of Jeannette Lazzari to support our activities supporting accordion events. The Lazzari’s ran NWAS for many years as secretary and treasurer. They created NWAS as a 501C non-profit organization.
