Service Description
Join us for a joyful and welcoming ukulele class designed especially for the LLwF community, no musical experience required! Together, we’ll explore the fun and friendly world of the ukulele in a supportive space filled with music. Each week, you’ll learn to play simple songs on the ukulele, build new musical skills, and enjoy live performances from talented musician volunteers and instructors. You’ll also discover the fascinating history of this beloved instrument, from its Hawaiian roots to its worldwide popularity today. Our classes begin with social time, giving everyone a chance to connect, followed by hands-on ukulele playing. Midway through, we’ll take a break, then settle in for a performance and storytime that will inspire and enrich your musical journey. Whether you’re strumming your first chord or singing along with new friends, this class celebrates creativity, confidence, and community through the power of music. Come make music with us and take home the joy of the ukulele!
Upcoming Sessions
Cancellation Policy
Our classes operate on a first-come, first-serve basis, with limited seating for up to 13 participants to ensure a quality learning experience. By registering, you reserve a valuable seat that may prevent others from joining. We understand that plans can change. However, cancellations made within one week of the class start date are not eligible for refunds. If you are unable to attend, we are happy to offer a course voucher, allowing you to apply your registration toward a future class of your choice. Parent/Guardian Attendance Policy Our program is designed to empower adults with IDDs to participate in classes at UT Austin alongside their peers, including both other adult students and college students. We encourage our participants to build self-confidence, practice age-appropriate social skills, and experience the independence of a college environment, just as any neurotypical college student would. To support this mission, parents and guardians are not permitted to attend classes with their student. However, if there are special circumstances—such as a need for assistance with personal care or concerns about behavior—exceptions to this policy may be considered. These exceptions require review and approval by our Executive Director, Kaelin Rubenzer, on a case-by-case basis. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
