Event Details

Get started on the ukulele and quickly learn to play familiar tunes while having fun! Play your own ukulele or borrow one of North Side Library's soprano ukuleles with your library card. Natalie Steenson will facilitate this 4-week class, teaching ukulele basics, chords and strumming patterns.

Classes will be online via Zoom. Space is limited and reservations are required. A phone number and email will be required for contact purposes when you sign up. 

Thank you for your interest in this program! All spots are currently full. More ukulele programs will be offered in the future, so please check back! 

Ukuleles can be checked out starting the week of December 27th at the North Side Library via curbside.
