Bring your string instrument (fiddle, guitar, bass, mandolin, banjo, dobro, or even ukulele) or just come to sing!

Workshop highlights include:

    Learning the Nashville Number System
    Using a capo
    Finding the right key for your voice
    Transposing and improvising
    Singing 3-part harmony
    Reading chord charts, and more!

Each day will feature six 2-hour bluegrass workshops led by acclaimed artist Jenny Lester. In your free time, explore the world-class Qualicum Beach, visit the Parksville mini putt (just 15 minutes away), or check out the Old Country Market for international food, clothing, fun souvenirs, and goats on the roof!
