Ukulele-in-a-Day workshop returns to Putney

PUTNEY — Back by popular demand, “Ukulele-in-a-Day, a 1-Day Quick-Start Workshop,” for anyone wanting to get started on the ukulele, comes to Next Stage Arts on Kimball Hill on Sunday, April 9, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Taught by Certified Gateless Master Teacher Lisa McCormick, students will learn to tune, strum, use proper positioning, play easy chords that work magic together, and make smooth chord transitions - all the skills they'll need to be able to play lots of fun and easy songs.

No musical background is required. A take-home handbook is included, with all information from the class, plus many songs to play, according to a news release.

Ukuleles will be available to use for the day or to purchase.

The previous two sessions of Ukulele-in-a-Day, held in Putney in October and January, sold out, so early registration is encouraged.
