SUMMARY:Free Activity: Ukulele Apothecary
DESCRIPTION:\nFree Family Friendly Activities: Ukulele Apothecary\nAt Darwen Market\n\nWITH KARINA GARNETT\nHave you ever met a Ukulele Apothecary? You’ll probably hear them coming, playing their ukuleles and trumpet kazoos as they stride into view looking for people to make friends with, bring a smile to, pass the joy to.\nInstead of dispensing herbs and medicine like a traditional apothecary, these clowns dispense music and silliness. Stopping for a short while with an individual or couple, staying longer with a larger family group or allowing people to gather around them.\nFirst they need to check vital statistics, give you the once over. Check your wellness with their stethoscopes, blood pressure monitors and put you through some rigorous reaction tests (catching balls, timed star jumps, press ups, singing different notes, copying a dance move) until they finally decide on the perfect remedy for you. A song. It will always be a song!\nYou will then be serenaded with humour and harmony. Perhaps their work will then be done or perhaps more musical medicine will be required. In most cases it will be vital for you and your group to learn to play the ukulele too. With just a couple of simple chords a song can be played and a new skill is begun.\n \nUkulele Apothecary is a walkabout activity with performances lasting 30 minutes at 11.30am, 1pm & 2.30pm. There will also be a drop in activity inside Darwen Market ( https://darwentowncentre.co.uk/market/ ).\n \nChildren must be supervised by a parent or guardian at all times.\nThis is a free event supported with funding from Arts Council England, Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council and Blackburn & Darwen Markets.\nThe activity is organised and managed by Culturapedia ( https://culturapedia.co/ ) and Spot On Lancashire ( https://spotonlancashire.co.uk ).\n \nDARWEN MARKET & HOW TO FIND US\n\nDarwen Market has been at the heart of the town since 1882.
