We will be performing among others on July 29 as a part of the Multicultural Fair at Spirit Square in Coquitlam. Our presentation is coined “Ukulele Spectacular”. If you would like to participate but have not signed up yet, email us to let us know as the more the merrier! If you have spare ukes to bring for the audience to try, let us know as well.

The Fair actually starts at 11 am and there will be “a variety of live entertainment, music and dance. Many cultures will be represented with performances from Chinese, South Asian, Polynesian, Korean and South American groups. There will be door prizes and activities for kids as well as adults. Visitors can try their hand at Chinese brush painting, calligraphy or learn a new dance.”

As many of you may know already, Kimo Hussey will be giving a five-day workshop, Aloha Ukulele, at Hollyhock on Cortes Island this summer. We are ecstatic and honoured that he has kindly accepted our invitation to conduct a workshop and give a house concert for us. Kimo is well-known around the world for his superb ukulele performance. He is a very patient and insightful teacher. (Watch Kimo’s instructional video series.)

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to experience the soothing and authentic music of the ukulele. We hope you will join us at this Coquitlam-first event.
