Fireside Arts and Music Presents "Kan U Uke? U Kan!"
Led by Tyler Phillips
Kan U Uke? U Kan! is a collaborative exploration of the wonderful world of Ukulele! Designed for grades 2-5 (K and 1 upon request), this course gets kiddos strumming on this fun and accessible instrument right away. Ukulele is a great way to introduce your little ones to music making while gathering knowledge that transfers to the guitar, banjo, mandolin, and many other instruments. If your student has a Uke, that's great! If not, we have enough for the whole class. Open to students in grades 2-5. Recital date is March 16, 2017
