Bill Monroe-Style Mandolin Camps

On September 10-12, 2010, the Museum will again host the greatest single event aimed at preserving the musical legacy of "The Father of Bluegrass," Bill Monroe. A faculty consisting of some of the greatest ambassadors of Monroe-style mandolin practitioners will assemble to examine issues related to the development and execution of Monroe's mandolin style.
At the Monroe-Style Mandolin Camp, you will spend three days with the finest mandolin faculty and luthiers and up to 50 of the coolest mandolin students you’ll find on Planet Earth. With registration for each camp capped at 50, the camps' intimate environment allows for ample opportunities to receive personal, hands-on instruction from each of these legends of Monroe-Style mandolin.
Jam with new friends surrounded by Bill Monroe's artifacts. Attend festivities at Rosine commemorating the 100th anniversary of his birth. Eat great barbeque and discover why Owensboro's famous for barbeque! Experience rare performances by master musicians, onstage and off. Enjoy a total immersion in bluegrass music's homeland, history and future at the world's only bluegrass music museum dedicated to preserving the international history and performance art of bluegrass music…all the while surrounded by rare bluegrass artifacts and memorabilia. Compare, sell or swap mandolins with other players. Trade live non-commercial bootleg recordings with other collectors. Be part of the museum and let it become an integral part of your life and music.
