SOLD OUT
Week 1: June 20-24
String Instrument Camp ages 7-10

The Birthplace of Country Music Museum’s Pick Along! Summer Camps are back for a second season! Not only will your child learn about Bristol’s important role in country music history and its lasting influence on the music of today, they’ll actually learn to play an instrument!

Children ages 7 to 10 will get expert instruction on the same style of instruments that were used in the 1927 Bristol Sessions recordings. They will not only learn how to play music, they will learn fundamental skills in various music styles. Campers get to explore the Birthplace of Country Music Museum, learn about the music of Bristol and our region, receive instruction in singing and dancing, and will be introduced to other concepts and disciplines that make up the rich tapestry of country music.

No previous musical experience is required for Pick Along! Summer Camps, only interest in music and a desire to learn and have fun! This camp is designed for beginners and anyone interested in our musical heritage. Whether you know just a little or absolutely nothing, this is the place for you!
