Augusta Summer Heritage: Bluegrass Week

Close your eyes and step into a day at Augusta: fiddles tuning up before that first class, banjos ring out through the air, a guitar plays a run that makes your hair stand on end. By day, you’re deep in class learning technique, rhythm, repertoire, and the stories behind the tunes from master bluegrass musicians who carry these traditions forward with care and spirit. By night, the music takes on a life of its own, spilling into jam circles and long conversations that last well past dark.

Bluegrass Week is a full-immersion experience rooted in history, tradition, and shared repertoire. Come learn, listen, and play music shaped by front porches, kitchens, and mountain gatherings for generations. Below, meet the artists who will guide this journey in 2026 and explore the classes that will shape your time at the Augusta Heritage Center.
