The Friends of the Library Community Meeting Room

For adults and teens aged 12 and older. This half-hour, six-week beginner ukulele workshop series will teach the basic anatomy of the ukulele, plus chords, strumming, and songs.

A limited number of spaces are available so that we may provide more one-on-one support to each participant. 

Ukuleles will be available for checkout at the first session. There are right or left handed ukuleles available, or bring your own! 

Due to the limited time available participants must be able to commit to signing in promptly each week, to attending each of the six sessions, and to returning any library-owned ukuleles at the last session. 

You may also want to use our LinkedIn Learning service to enjoy this free tutorial.
