ARTHUR'S NEWS
BLUEGRASS IN THE GARDEN
Starts Thursday March 25th 6pm-8pm!
Join us for the first Bluegrass
Jam of the new year! Bring your instruments, a chair and a friend to pick a
little tune and get your fingers warmed up after this cold, cold winter!
For those of you that haven't
been to Bluegrass In The Garden, we sit and pick in
Mrs. Arthur's hidden garden behind the store under the largest Oak tree in
Indiana. The sound of bluegrass floats on the spring breezes while the
sweet scent of hundreds of flowers lightly kiss your nose...(pretty nice, huh?)
Everyone is welcome to join in or just sit in the shade and enjoy the music.
Well behaved dogs are also welcome! Woof! If the weather doesn't cooperate,
we'll have the jam in the store right on the sales floor. Rain does not stop the
music!
TELL US WHAT YOU THINK!
For the last two years,
Bluegrass In The Garden has been held on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of
each month from 6pm-9pm. Thursday evenings are becoming more of a
challenge for our favorite pickers, so we would like to change the day and time. So...What do you think of Bluegrass In
The Garden being held every other Saturday from
1pm-4pm? Email, call or stop in to give us your feedback! Thank you!!

Just A Note...
3/6/2010: Our customers know they can count on us to have
instruments that most would consider "out there" or odd. Today, our teacher Paul
Ware was asked to give an old-fashioned "spoons" lesson, and we took a Harmonium
in on trade (tabletop accordion or reed organ-like instrument invented in France
in 1842 and popularized in Europe and Northern India during the late 19th
Century). From day to day, we never know what's going to walk through the
door....
Need to know how to play that instrument you got for
Christmas?
Arthur's offers lessons on Acoustic and
Electric Guitar, Bass, Banjo, Mandolin, Drums, Harmonica, Piano, and much more.
$20 per 1/2 Hour Private Lesson, Once Per
Week.
