aloha uke friends!

i'd like to invite you to San Francisco for a special weekend workshop with SF Uke Jam, hosted by me and Ukulenny.  come join us on Saturday October 8th for a day full of jams, clinics, and concerts.  enjoy jamming with our SF Uke Jam community, and build the skills to lead your own jam!

in many ways, i designed this workshop for you, my lovely patrons. :)  i know some of you jam with me online because you don't have your own jam group, and others have asked about how to lead a jam.  san francisco is a beautiful city, and i would be thrilled to have you join our uke community for the weekend.

take a look at the details below, and i would love to see you in person at the workshop!  feel free to post a comment with any questions.

Hi, Would i need a ticket to participate just the morning of Sat 8:30 -12:15?

Cynthia Lin

hi debbie, yes, that's the main part of the workshop and the only part you actually need a ticket for. the afternoon jam and the concert are free.
