HOW DOES UKULELE CLUB WORK?
- It's FREE of Charge (We are a Non-Profit Association and Ukulele Club is run by volunteers, BUT... it would be nice if you would become a member and help support our programs - HINT. HINT. HINT).
- Meet every 2 weeks (depending
on holidays)
- Learn 1 new song for each meeting.
- Once we get better, we could even form solo
groups, prepare songs and to perform at the “Open Mic” during the
meetings!
- Practice Makes Perfect!
Our space is free in the mornings Monday-Friday from
9-1. Feel free to come in and practice.
- Flash Uke? Do you want to play with your new friends? Post it on
the WhatsApp group and plan impromptu meetings in cool places like in
Osmizzas! or at Barcola! Your own home or yard! How fun is that! Kudos to Silva, Valeria and Marino for
our first Flash Ukulele Mob last Saturday in the Giardino Pubblico!

money will get you through time with no ukulele” – Anonymous

and you drink” - Dwayne Johnson

a few and enjoy yourselves” – George Harrison
