About YouCanlele Music Camp

YouCanlele Music Camp is a summer camp for ages six to twelve. It is hosted by local music teacher Johnny Hargrove, and his student and fellow teacher Persephone Amma.

Throughout the camp, students will learn to play the basics of ukulele, guitar, piano, and have a performance for friends and family on the final day.

While no musical experience is required, we invite kids who already play instruments to sign up as well, as they will be able to play their instrument on at least one song during the performance.

Piano and Drumset are provided. Other non-ukulele instruments must be brought from home.

Dates

August 17th – August 21st, 2026

Performance for family & friends on August 21st
