For this year’s Original Utah Uke Fest, I wanted to come up with a collaborative art project that we could celebrate being able to come together again with. What if we had a big string art project ready to go, all nailed up with no strings yet? Attendees could add strings to it throughout the day and by the end we could take a photo to share …

About 4-foot tall, the completed community ukulele string art project.

It was such a success (the picture doesn’t really do it justice), the leader of the Salt Lake Strummers wanted to hang it up in her new music studio. I was grateful it found a permanent home and will live beyond the one day event.

A big thanks to Christopher McAfee, of the Art City Ukulele Fellowship, for volunteering to prepare the board and pound the nails. THANKS CHRIS!
