Entertaiment
Strawberry Hill Fiddlers live!
The Fiddlers currently host four levels of fiddle groups whose performances represent the music of many cultures, and are directed by Andrea Velasquez, Chelsea Needham, and Carole Schaad. Its unique fiddling program is centered on learning traditional music by ear.
Open to violin, viola, cello, and bass players, the Fiddlers offers exposure to
various non-classical styles, improvisation, singing, dancing and body percussion.
Please come join the fun.
We miss you and hope to have more activities and fundraisers as soon as it is responsibly safe.
In the meantime, stay safe and stay healthy!
