Join us for a free one-day DIY gathering
of ukulele players to Converge in Corvallis. Our goal is to play music and have fun at all levels of experience as we play the ukulele. Share in the joy of playing music; connect with other musicians in the region; learn new songs, and advance your ukulele skills.
Take free classes, teach a free session.
This will be a Do-It-Yourself event. When you arrive you can simply take a class at your skill level, or you can teach a song, a skill or a theory to others. It’s as simple as signing up on a volunteer board.It’s all free!
No registration. Just show up.
This event will be free and open to the public. Help us invite and spread the word by emailing friends and the many ukulele groups in Corvallis, Eugene, Salem, Portland and other neighboring communities.
Volunteers interested in leading a session are requested to bring extra music sheets or educational material to share. There is a copy center right across the street from our venue if you should need it.
A quadrant of skill levels:
- Beginners
- Beginner-Intermediate
- Intermediate
- Intermediate-Advanced
Learn at your appropriate skill level.
The Convergence will feature a quadrant of areas for beginners, beginner-intermediate, intermediate, intermediate-advance skill levels. Each quadrant will have sign-up area for volunteers to lead a 40-minute session teaching a song or a skill or a concept.
There will be a time allotted for a children’s circle.
