You'll be playing on the first day! If you have a ukulele, bring it to class in good working order along with an electronic clip-on tuner. Don't have a uke? Please contact Education & Recreation for purchasing information. Instruction is for the small size varieties of ukulele - soprano, concert, or tenor.

If you enjoy singing and socializing, this class may be for you! Within a supportive group setting, this class offers an opportunity to sing songs from lyric sheets and explore events, history, holidays, and memories related to a different theme each week. We will begin each session with a short vocal warm up that will include some movement, so please wear comfortable clothing and footwear. You don’t need to have a great voice and no previous singing experience is necessary... just a desire and willingness to have some fun! Anyone can join.
