This class is designed for beginning musicians and music fans who wish to understand the components of music and how these components work. The basics of chords and chord progression, melody and harmony will be discussed. Pace and direction is set, in part, by student background and interest. You do not need a knowledge of music - only a desire to learn!
Exhibit Opening: "Stone Age Warwick" - Native American artifacts on display in the Wisner Room through February 2016.

Clinic: On Sunday, January 24, there will also be a "clinic" with archaeologists on hand to look at your finds and help identify them for you. Please register if you will be bringing artifacts for the clinic.
