Whether you’ve never picked up a ukulele before, or you’ve played for years, this camp is for you! Beginners will learn the basics and more experienced players will level up their playing. Everyone will learn favourite songs as a group, as we prepare for our final Friday showcase for family and friends! All skill levels welcome, absolutely no experience necessary; just bring your ukulele, or borrow one of ours! In between ukulele jams, we’ll make sure to get some sunshine, create fun crafts, and play active games.
