Join local Ukulele enthusiasts for a day filled with music at the Blackwater Ukulele Festival!
The festival kicks off with a workshop appropriate for the beginner through intermediate players. The workshop is taught by local ukulele legend Donald "Noodle McDoodle" Whitley, one of the best ukulele players on the east coast.
A free concert will be put on by the Charleston Hot Shots, a "Skiffle" band and The V-Tones, a unique ukulele swing band.
Guests will also enjoy the Boat Jams, where ukulele players man the Bateau boats, 10-12 to a boat, and are rowed around the swamp singing and jamming together.
There is open mic where the local ukulele crowd gets to perform.
For the non-uke playing members of your family there are the regular park attractions a gift shop, island vendors, craft vendors and food vendors.
Admission: $10 Adult, $9 Seniors, $5 (6-12 yr), 5 and under are free.
