Mary Stephenson and Sarah Divaker - Violin and Harp

Mary Stephenson and Sarah Divaker performed for us at our Kaleidoscope Concert in 2024. Their performance on the violin and harp was enchanting! We are so pleased that they are now returning as featured artists. Mary Stephenson began her violin studies in Arizona with Dr. Pelletier and Dr. Round and has continued her education in Georgia with Bill Fortenberry, Sue Tomlin, Fred Bone, and the Atlanta Suzuki Association. She has also attended a master class conducted by Robert McDuffie. Ms. Stephenson currently teaches violin at Mikado Academy of Music and maintains a vibrant private studio. As a performer, Ms. Stephenson provides music for weddings as a soloist or with various ensembles including cello, harp and guitar, performs in the musical productions of various churches and participated in the folk band The Lady Grands. Sarah Divakar studied harp for ten years in Washington under the teaching of Emily Hageman.  She set up her own studio in 2013, and continued teaching via video lessons after moving to Macon, GA in 2016. She has performed as part of an orchestra for church cantatas, as well as both classical and sacred solo pieces.  Currently, she balances practicing and performing at her home church (Berean Baptist in Macon) with mothering her three young children.
