welcome to the Scotland Ukulele Project
We are delighted to be currently working with:
the scotland ukulele project
The Scotland ukulele project was founded in March 2021. Sarah came on board to spread her wings and share her passion and enthusiasm for community and music education.
At the Scotland Ukulele Project, we want to bring communities together, from all walks of life, providing opportunities to those who may not have experienced the benefits that learning an instrument brings. We are passionate about creating safe and inclusive spaces, so that those who normally wouldn’t have the opportunity, will have a platform to shine. We are working closely with the LGBT+ community in Glasgow, and are committed to creating LGBT+ jam clubs and donating ukuleles to this community across the country. A community Sarah is passionate about, and also a community who are often impacted by loneliness.
We also are working with after school clubs, bringing music education alive and running workshops for students and their leaders so they can lead regular ukulele after school groups. From January 2022, Sarah will be running her own ukulele school in Glasgow, providing people in her local community a place to learn all things ukulele ,and get involved in the Ukulele Project events.
We hope to run events, connecting our communities through the ukulele, to show that, we really are all quite similar, despite superficial differences.

Past Events
We are an Arts Award Centre
What is an Arts Award?
A range of unique qualifications that supports anyone aged up to 25 years old to grow as artists and arts leaders. In England, Arts Award is managed by Trinity College London and Arts Council England.
What do you currently offer?
We can support children and young people to work towards their Discover and/or Explore Awards. Children and young people collect evidence in an individual arts log of their experiences of participating in arts activites, researching artists and/or arts organisations and their work, sharing their arts discoveries, creating a piece of art work and identifying what they have enjoyed and/or acheived and their communication of this to others. If we can support your school, your student or organisation in working towards an Arts Award please get in touch for more information
