About Boone JAM
The Boone JAM (Junior Appalachian Musicians) program offers small group music lessons for kids age 8 and over in traditional styles of the region for fiddle, clawhammer banjo, guitar, mandolin, and ukulele. The program is rooted in traditional old time and bluegrass music.
The Boone JAM program is an affiliate of the Junior Appalachian Musicians organization (www.jamkids.org) and receives support from the Wayne C. Henderson Scholarship and the North Carolina Arts Council.

"This registration form will ask you to select the most fitting class for you or your child (a separate form must be filled out for each student). Preference will be given to students between ages 8-17, and spots will be assigned on a first-come-first-serve basis. Wait lists will also be created, and the class schedule may be subject to some changes once demand has been assessed. If you are interested in a group class that is not listed (i.e. Advanced Mandolin), please select "Other" and write your requested class in the box below. We will try our best to accommodate as many requests as possible."
