Music Workshops
From
time to time, an popular featured artist will hold a music workshop
to local interested musicians on the afternoon of the coffee house.
The fee is nominal and the workshop offers perspective on music,
as well as experience that comes from years of performing on the
road.
In
January, Dan Stevens offered his insights to a handful of willing
guitarists, who ran the gamut from experienced to new to their instrument.
