March 18 - May 6, 2024

Mondays | 10:30 AM - 11:30 AM

The Strummers Beginner Spring Session expands beginners’ technique and confidence on the uke!

In this 8-week session, students will begin to jam together, building the technique and confidence to share their playing with friends and family. Together, we’ll explore favorite songs in comfortable keys and progressions, and build some experience with common strumming patterns.

Classes meet Mondays from March 18th through May 6th at 10:30am in the Community Room at Arizona Musicfest.

No experience, but lots of enthusiasm, required. Students must provide their own instruments. (Concert or Tenor-size Ukuleles recommended, Baritones welcome!).

Please email musicalive@azmusicfest.org with questions!
