October 21 Ukulele Jam

Greetings, Kingston ukulele fans!

Those who weren't at the last ukulele jam missed a great time! We had a few newcomers, and most people brought songs to strum along with. We even had a few songs left unsung by the end of the evening. Ukulele jam is only as successful as the people who attend. No matter what your skill level, you have your own talents to bring. You don't have to solo or lead the group if you don't want to. Just come along with your ukulele and strum along.

October 7 Ukulele Jam

Greetings, Kingston ukulele fans!

On September 29, 2010, a group of ukulele fans first met at the Kingston School of Music. We've been jamming ever since! We now begin our sixth year of strumming together!

A lot has happened over the past five years. We moved to the RCHA club for a while. And then almost three years ago, we moved to our present location, the historic Royal Tavern. What would you like to see moving forward? This is a good time to start a discussion on what to do next.
