Stop by Polk Wisdom Branch for a grab and go kit! Pick up a sunflower craft kit and reflect on how you spread kindness and how kindness has been extended to you. 

In this class we will be presenting a more in depth understanding of music theory. This is a continuation of concepts presented in the Beginning Theory Class which meets on Tuesdays.

Learn how to read music, understand chord and melodic theory, and to play the piano or keyboard. Participants are encouraged to attend a weekly session, but can join at any time.  

Join us for relaxing jigsaw puzzling, meet new people, and have fun in a social setting. We have a variety of formats to suit both individual and team puzzlers. 

Interested in learning to play the guitar? Dust that guitar in the corner off and let's play some songs. You'll learn basic chords and strumming patterns, as well as a bit of music theory in the process.
