Today’s treat from our Holiday Showcase features Ukulele under the leadership of Molly Raher Newman and with the talents of some Intermediate students!
Starting in January Molly will be teaching Intermediate classes at the Saanich Centre on Wednesday mornings. While Beginner and Beginner Continuing are offered Friday afternoons at the Victoria Centre with Wendy Pritchard.
Just think! If you are starting or an experienced Ukulele player and register for this January you too could be on stage next year!
