• Youth Ukulele:  (Rising 6th grade and up)  Beginning and intermediate skills for youth.  Music from Montreat / Massanetta will be mixed in!
• Adult Introduction to Ukulele:  Meet the ukulele, learn basics about chords and strumming, and begin playing basic songs.
• Adult Intermediate Ukulele:  Build on ukulele skills such as varied strumming patterns, fingerpicking, reading music and tablature, and understanding the relationship between chords.
• Adult Study on Prayer:  Come engage in a thought-provoking study of the Christian practice of prayer led by Rev. Jonathan Bowling of Carolina Beach Presbyterian.

A nursery will be offered for parents who sign up their infants and toddlers by August 1st, 2018.

We do have a few ukuleles that may be borrowed from our “Ukulele Library.”
