Dates: Sept. 5-7, 2008
Directors: Ken Perlman & Peter Langston
Spend a weekend away from the toil and cares of everyday life, with nothing to do but learn about bluegrass and old-time banjo from world-famous teachers, play in jams, eat delicious food, and possibly even sleep! The American Banjo Camp takes place on the first weekend after Labor Day each year at a spectacularly scenic converted naval base on Puget Sound. The full schedule is packed with hands-on classes and demonstrations as well as a faculty concert and dozens of jamming opportunities.
We offer classes at all levels from beginner through intermediate and advanced to professional.
