Event Details

Uke from Scratch: A ukulele workshop for complete beginners The ukulele is hot right now! Folks young and old are learning to play this friendly little instrument — and loving it! If you’re one of the many people who thought you would like to give it a try but didn’t want to invest in an instrument, this workshop is for you! In just an hour or so, you’ll be playing simple tunes! You will learn some basic chords and techniques on a loaned ukulele, and you’ll soon know if you have the bug — or not!

Ukulele performer and teacher Wendy Matthews leads this workshop with her family of loaner ukes available for you to use. She has been teaching uke to beginners and intermediates in groups and privately for several years. She has shared her Uke from Scratch workshop with newbies at libraries, festivals, music shops and other organizations across the tristate area. Great fun for all ages: adults, seniors and kids ages 10 and up.

Ukuleles are provided!
