Whitman County Library now has ukuleles available for checkout. As part of the new loan program, residents are invited to try out the instruments this Monday, April 30th from 5:00 – 6:00 p.m. and join ukulele instructor Scott Hallett for orientation. Scott will demonstrate basic techniques for playing the instrument, how to use the tuner and how to follow the instructional booklet that is included with each ukulele.
Scott will be available throughout the year to entertain and assist residents interested in the ukulele. Scott will also be teaching a Ukulele course for Community College’s ACT2 enrichment programming at the Colfax Library. The Ukuleles are thanks to a generous donation from The Ukulele Players of the Palouse.
To request a Ukulele for checkout, contact any Whitman County Library Branch or call 509-397-4366. If you are interested in any of Scott Hallett’s classes or more information on the Ukulele Players of the Palouse, call (509) 288-2208.
