On the afternoon of August 13, seniors carrying hard ukulele cases streamed into People Plus, a Brunswick-area senior center located at 35 Union Street in Brunswick.
As people pulled out their ukuleles, warm chords and chatter filled the air. The Ukulele Club was formed in early July and now meets monthly at the center, providing seniors with an opportunity to meet, socialize and indulge in a musical skill.
Tuesday’s session featured songs from the ’60s and ’70s. Participants read the chords and lyrics from a projection screen and gently strummed their ukuleles in time with each other. The up-and-coming group is the first ukulele club at People Plus and hopes to continue to grow its membership, organizers said.
There are only two requirements to join: the ability to strum the ukulele and play basic chords. Anyone can try the club once for free, but continued participation requires a People Plus membership.
Interested parties should call People Plus at 729-0757 to register or for more information.
