Join us this upcoming Thursday, March 6th for the Thursday Parlay! Guest Speaker, Dale Winger, took home a Grand Champion award at last year’s 4-H open show for his ukulele gourd. Winger was inspired to create his gourd instrument after noticing an Appalachian Dulcimer—a folk instrument—made of three gourds on display at the Indiana State Fair last year, where he had submit­ted another preserved gourd project. The instrument was created through the partnership between Winger and Wabash Music Store owner, Terry LeMaster. 🎸🌿✨

This is a free event brought to you by the Wabash County Museum. To RSVP: www.wabashmuseum.org/events-1/the-thursday-parlay-crafting-the-flat-top-ukulele-gourd/form
