Acoustic Guitar

This is a great class for beginner to intermediate players looking to get into bluegrass. Students will learn the basic chords and melody of one or 2 classic Bluegrass songs and how to approach playing them in a jam setting. Over the course of about an hour the class will play the tunes several times as a group exploring different possibilities for kickoffs, solos, endings and more. At the end of the class we open up the jam! Justin plays guitar and banjo with Cherry Blossom Special and runs jam sessions along and runs jam sessions along with mandolinist Nick Cameron and fiddler Mari Carlson. He has been teaching guitar, banjo and mandolin in Takoma Park since 2012. This class was designed to give people an affordable entry point to Bluegrass music, and help grow the community. The class is $30 Register [Here!](https://checkout.square.site/buy/GUSSUYYW5UMKDMCDV4CQBOBL)

**Save the date:** the Firefly House invites you to join us in-person for our celebration of Ostara the afternoon of March 21st at Lake Accotink Park in Springfield, VA. This is one of our few metro inaccessible locations, so if you need a ride, **[check out our carpool sheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zadmV8M6J4uEPqBARfoOZfeGlMH8dSmBVxIel_W2h1I/edit?usp=sharing)**. We'll post a complete schedule as we approach the date, but you can expect at least a seasonal celebration with our friends from **[the Wilderness Between](https://www.wildernessbetween.org/)** as well as a pot luck feast thereafter.
