February 23-25, 2024 – From Scratch…literally! In this class Laurie will lead students in assembling their own dulcimer from durable cardboard, string it up, and then learn to play it. You’ll find your way around the fretboard while learning tunes on this lovely instrument, plus you’ll leave with your very own instrument and the skills needed to continue playing on your own.

Jean Ritchie: In Song and Story– Inspired by Jean Ritchie’s book “Singing Family of the Cumberlands,” this workshop offers recollections that transport us to another era. Consider these songs front porch favorites as you imagine a family gathering at the end of the day to recount the day’s activities and to bring in the twilight. Several tunings will be presented, including DAd, DAA, and DAC.
