Youth Music

About

Children ages 7-17 can learn traditional Irish instruments from a talented staff of professional musicians. No experience needed. Instruments include Drums, Pipes, Tin Whistle, Banjo, Bodhrán, Guitar, Concertina, Fiddle, and Keyboards. All classes take place at the United Irish Cultural Center.

The Youth Music Program is offered by the UICC in partnership with the the San Francisco Cooley-Keegan Comhaltas Branch. Music Scholarships are available to defray the cost of music tuition.

Who wants to join our youth Céilí band?

The UICC is committed to providing top-notch cultural programming opportunities, with special attention to youth as we build for the next generation of Irish Americans. Our new youth Céilí band is a fun and welcoming way for young people to connect with Irish music, develop their musical talents, and perform at community events throughout the year. Whether your child plays fiddle, accordion, flute, bodhrán, or is just beginning their musical journey, we encourage them to get involved. Together, we’re fostering pride in heritage and creating joyful memories that will last a lifetime.

No experience needed!
