We are excited to offer a combined hammered dulcimer workshop and concert day with with one of our 2025 Annual Weekend Mountain Dulcimer tutors – Steve Eulberg.

The day offers a chance to take classes online with a tutor who is coming in person this October to our annual weekend. If you can't attend in October or just want a sneak preview of his classes and his approach, this event gives you the perfect opportunity. And while the classes will provide a firm foundation to some of the things covered in October, they are not a pre-requisite and are designed to complement (not duplicate) our October weekend classes. The cost is £20 per workshop and there are two levels of workshop on offer.

In addition there is an evening concert, open to all, whether or not you attend the workshops. We hope to see you there!
