Finally, after years of Pandemic and construction closures restricting public access, we return to where it literally all began -- except we will be outside in their lovely backyard garden, not in our usual basement haunt.
Get directions and accessibility info (we regret that the library is only partially accessible) on their branch page here.

Event Description: The NYC Uke Squad invites all interested ukulele players and singalong singers to join in our Ukulele Jam and Singalong in the Leonard Library garden. All ages and levels are welcome.
BYO ukulele if you want to play. BYO music stand if you need one. Please plan to supervise any children attending with you.
The first 30-40 minutes will be especially appropriate for beginner-level players, and difficulty may increase after that point, depending on who is in attendance.
We will play songs from our Summer 2022 songbook. Find it here to download, print, or plan to read on a phone/tablet.
The NYC Uke Squad was created by local musician and teacher Jenny Selig, joined by a group of ukulele teacher Cynthia Lin's online students, to bring Cynthia's Aloha spirit and uke-love to the NYC area. Cynthia's YouTube channel hosts dozens of free lessons for ukulele players.
