NEW! Ukulele for Adults
Winter Class | Registration opens Wednesday, November 6, 2024 12:00 AM EST
While receiving basic instruction on ukulele, participants will compile a book of lead sheets (songs) and exercises. This act will open the door for you to become a folk musician.
You will exit this course knowing what and how to practice advancing your ability to accompany your voice with the ukulele.
My dream is to see people singing together again with your help, I can realize it.
No experience or ukulele needed.
- For Materials, please bring $20 in cash on the first day of class for the instructor.
- You will be encouraged to bring your own ukulele, however there are ukuleles available for use in class at the Community Arts Center.
You will need your own ukulele and tuner to use while practicing at home.
Joshua King
Finding myself lost in the sea of family tragedies, music has preserved me. Music opened my heart through the droughts of life. Complex over laid patterns of sound tuned my nervous system to the speed of this precious life. Harmonious, gratitude enriched connections carried me when my thoughts were too heavy. Practice teaches me to train my own wild animal. “Sit. Stay. Persist.”
I dream of a culture where we sing together again as people have since time immemorial. Meters pulling us together, notes urging us forward, harmonies welling up within us. Cycles timed concordantly with each growing synergy in the water from our hearts. One lifting another, and in time being lifted oneself. Reaching for new stars and home planets, growing gardens here, and far away. Moving us together, to grow families, communities, nations.
