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.
This interactive online program will be held Thursdays on Zoom from 6:30 to 7 p.m., from November 11 through December 16. A limited number of spaces are available so that we may provide more one-on-one support to each participant.
Registrants will receive the Zoom meeting links for each of the six weeks of the course immediately upon registration. (Please check your Junk and Spam folders right away if you don't see the confirmation email and link in your Inbox, then adjust your settings to make sure emails from KFPL aren't blocked. You can also access event links by scrolling over the calendar icon at the top of the main page of our website and signing in to My Events.) Participants will need to download Zoom in advance to whichever device they'll be using for this program.
Registrants will be able to borrow ukulele kits from the Isabel Turner Branch beginning on Thursday November 4 using the library card associated with their registration. You will be asked when registering whether you are right- or left-handed, or if you already own a ukulele; a limited number of left-handed ukuleles will be available for borrowing. You will be contacted when your kit is ready to be picked up. Ukulele kits may be collected only at the Isabel Turner branch; check pickup hours at https://www.kfpl.ca/hours-and-locations/isabel-turner-branch. Make sure you bring your library card when you come!
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 to the Isabel Turner branch no later than Monday December 20. This program will be offered again from January 13 through February 17; registration for that series will open at 9 AM on Saturday January 4 (details to be announced in December).
