Learn ukulele basics and gain confidence playing ukulele with Minneapolis-based YouTube sensation singer/songwriter Rose Oyamot! This free workshop will include: tuning your instrument, holding position, beginner strum patterns, and an introduction to the “three magic chords” which can be used on a multitude of songs. After the workshop, Rose will be available to answer questions.  The class is geared towards participants ages 8 and up.

The interactive workshop will be offered through the North Olympic Library’s Facebook and YouTube channel.  Although ukuleles will not be provided for the event, the library does have a limited number ukuleles and other instruments available for checkout; place a hold at www.nols.org/nols-gear.  

Offered at no cost to participants.  Cosponsored by the North Olympic Library System and the Juan de Fuca Foundation for the Arts.  Financial support for this program comes from the Juan de Fuca Foundation and local Friends of the Library groups.
