Lil’ Juke Joint

Listening to music feeds the soul, but learning to play music feeds the mind. Particularly at a young age, playing music helps develop social, psychical, and academic skills while boosting self-esteem and patience. Lil’ Juke Joint, which is taking place during the first annual Highmark Blues and Heritage Festival, is a one-hour class that will teach fundamentals of blues to young music fans. Recommended for ages 8 and under, this could be how the next B.B. King or Eric Clapton get their start.
