Visit JahRoc Galleries during the Strings Attached Guitar Festival and groove to some live blues guitar by Graeme Dickinson with a glass of Margaret River fine wine, whilst perusing an exhibition of artistically embellished ukuleles, an enviable private guitar collection you would dream to own, and some groovy designer timber guitar and ukulele stands.

Saturday 12th October

4pm – 6.30 pm

An exhibition of Artistically Embellished Ukuleles

A Private Collection of Casimi & Mark Mainguard Guitars

An exhibition of Designer Guitar & Ukulele Stands

Live Music by Graeme Dickinson

Fine Wine

This is a free event, all welcome to attend.

25 Artists from JahRoc’s stable have embraced the challenge to each paint a Ukulele for the Strings Attached Festival and our “Get Uked” exhibition. Their idea is – “If we can’t play a ukulele then we’ll decorate one, and let those who can play it, enjoy it even more for its artistic style!”

These fun little instruments truly are functional pieces of art… play it, then display it for all to admire. The only dilemma is choosing your favourite one…or two!

“Get Uked” exhibition is showing from 11th October – 3rd November
