This is our third year and we are looking forward to providing free music education for years to come. Please enjoy sharing and all the events at BIG (Big Island Guitar).

Unlike any other music gathering we encourage all to come learn and teach. We cover music theory how to chart songs and meet others that share your passion for music…. Heck possibly even form a group!

One of our instructors, Wago Howard, shares the event via YouTube for those who choose the couch tour approach.

These trees mark the beginning of what would become the Honolulu Botanical Gardens.
