Crooked Tree Strings Orientation on Beaver Island

Orientation for the Dorothy Gerber Strings Program will be coming to the Beaver Island Community Center on Thursday, November 13 at 3:30pm. All of the string instruments that are included in the program will be demonstrated for students, both younger and older. Adults are welcome and registration information will be handed out after the presentation. Here is your chance to learn a string instrument, a high value skill proven to help with grades and brain development. Learning to play an instrument is hands on and fun. Come and exercise your creative side.

Students who have at least 1 year experience will be Intermediates. Those students who have 2 or more years experience can join the Youth Orchestra program starting with the Concert Orchestra. The Winter Concert will be on Feb. 1st for Youth Orchestra and Spring Concert on May 17th for all string players.

Weekly classes will be held on the island, location and date to be announced:
3:30-4:20 Beginning
4:20-5:00 Intermediate
