performance that drew an audience of over 1200, and formed a chamber music society. Directed by Brooks Morris, the chamber group became the foundation of the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra. In 1926 the club put on two concerts with multiple pianos playing the same classical pieces in unison. The concerts, with respectively 12 or 20 pianos, were directed by Carl Venth, dean of Texas Woman's College (now known as Texas Wesleyan University). Venth was also the Euterpean Club's choral director in 1930 and 1931. The club organized programs for the state centennial celebration, featuring Texas composers Radie Britain, David Guion, William J. Marsh, Oscar J. Fox, and Carl Venth. In 1939, it held a special memorial program with musicians from Southern Methodist University for the late Anna Shelton, founder and longtime president of the Woman's Club of Fort Worth, and also hosted the statewide convention of the Texas Federation of Music Clubs. During World War II, the club programs featured performers from the Fort Worth Army Airfield, Camp Wolters, and other Texas military installations. Members volunteered as USO workers and WAC recruiters, worked at hospitals, sold war bonds, and donated a piano to the Fort Worth Army Airfield. In 1959, a scholarship fund was established. Since that time, a scholarship has been awarded annually to a local college or university student. The Euterpean Club remains an active club under the auspices of The Woman's Club of Fort Worth. They plan programs that include performance and study in various areas such as strings, dance, opera, jazz, American Music, sacred music and more. They continue to award an annual club scholarship to a local college music major. They have preserved many of their club historical artifacts, books, articles, yearbooks, club records and documents and share them with displays at special events such as their recent Founder's Day Program on January 19, 2022 at which they were presented a City of Fort Worth Mayoral Proclamation recognizing their 125th Anniversary. In honor of their anniversary and preservation of their history and artifacts, club Historian Nancy Dobbs was presented the NSDAR Excellence in Historic Preservation Award on March 2, 2022 by the Mary Isham Keith Chapter NSDAR.
