Flute circles foster appreciation and understanding of the Native American flute, as well as other world flute traditions, through playing the Native Flute for each other in a supportive and encouraging setting. All sharing an interest in the Native American flute are invited, including all levels of skill, from enthusiastic listeners to beginners to long-time players. Please bring your flute to play! World flutes from other cultures are welcome. We will be enjoying and learning from each other's playing. You will not be required to play the flute, but you are encouraged to make some sound! Bring your hand-carried percussion instruments and drums! There will also be beginner flutes and instruction books available for purchase.

Awaiting Shipment of Beginner Flutes and Instruction Books

The shipment of beginner flutes and instruction books has not arrived in time for the first meeting August 19, but are expected to arrive in the next week. Let us know at the meeting or by email if you are interested in obtaining either of these.
