Highland Square & Rubber City Ukes will perform a variety of songs covering over 100 years of popular music ranging from folk and traditional to rock. Enjoy light refreshments and check out a ukulele!

Through the generosity of The Summit 91.3 FM radio, Kenmore Branch recently acquired a collection of ukuleles, available for checkout with your library card!

Celebrate with Kenmore Branch staff, enjoy light refreshments, and listen to a concert from the Highland Square & Rubber City Ukes.

This ensemble is a group of ukulele players of varying levels and abilities who come together to spread the joy of making music together. They meet each Tuesday in Highland Square.

Enjoy this celebration as they perform a variety of songs covering over 100 years of popular music ranging from folk and traditional to rock and the American songbook. To paraphrase George Harrison, you can’t hear ukulele music and not smile!
