ukulele jam session
In partnership with The Kanikapila Project, our jam sessions are outlets for guardians to explore & enjoy Hawaii’s favorite instrument, the ukulele!
The Kanikapila Project is based in Maui and aims to bring comfort, aloha and wellness through the joy of ukulele.
Led by Larry Santos, Oahu born and raised Air Force Guardsmen who spreads his love and knowledge of ukulele through the Ukulele Project Hawaii; who helps get ukuleles in the hands of keiki.
The jam session is designed for guardians to experience & explore the healing nature of music. We have 10 ukuleles available for use during the event, but please bring your own if you have one.
Guardians of any skill level are welcome to join! No prior music experience necessary. Looking forward to seeing you!
