Hal & Jill Project Adds Ukulele Classes

The Turner Center for the Arts held its first beginner ukulele class Tuesday, Oct. 6. Instructor David Rodock introduced the new musicians to basic chords, timing, strumming and learning melodies. The Center offers both guitar and ukulele classes through The Hal & Jill Project, an outreach program that encourages youth to positively express themselves through music. Classes are $40/month for either ukulele (Tuesdays, 5-6 p.m.) or guitar (Thursdays, 5-6 p.m.) lessons, and full or partial scholarships are available. Because of generous community support, several instruments have been donated and can be provided for students in need.
