Come join the fun of making music with your ukulele! Central Lincoln County Adult Education is offering a six week Ukulele for Beginners course taught by Heather Hardy beginning Wednesday, Feb. 23 at Great Salt Bay School in Damariscotta from 6:30 to 8 p.m.

You do not have to read music to have fun playing the ukulele. Ukulele is one hot instrument all over the country right now and Maine is part of that revival with ukulele groups springing up all over the place. In these beginning sessions you will learn how to form basic chords, strum a tune and sing along to songs you know well. A love of fun is the only requirement needed to learn to play.

Any ukulele will work, but if you have a baritone ukulele, please be sure that it is tuned to a regular ukulele (G,C,E,A). The instructor, Heather Hardy will provide the sheet music.

Hardy is a singer-songwriter living in Bristol. She gives beginning guitar, ukulele and song writing lessons. She and her husband run the open mic music night at Round Top farm house.

The cost of the course is $64. To register or for more information call CLC Adult Education at 207-563-2811, email clcae@aos93.org, visit our website at www.clc.maineadulted.org, or stop by the office in the Pine Grove Plaza (at the intersection of Route 1 and Business Route 1 in Damariscotta).
