The 'Ukulele Guild of Hawai'i
E Ola Mau Ka 'Ukulele
Background
Founder and executive director Michael Chock formed the 'Ukulele Guild of Hawai'i in the year 2000 with the dream of establishing a like-minded group of people willing to openly share their passion and experiences in musical stringed instrument construction. For the past 23 years, the highlight event for The Guild is presenting its Annual 'Ukulele Exhibition and Conference - The Hawai'i 'Ukulele Experience. This is a three-day event showcasing custom-built world-class 'ukuleles, builders and players workshops, seminars, and 'ukulele entertainment. Indeed our membership of 'ukulele professionals and experts in building, playing, the historical collection, and the sharing of all things 'ukulele make the 'Ukulele Guild of Hawai'i a special organization.
The willingness to share the love of all things 'ukulele is foremost in the hearts and minds of our members. We welcome you to share in our experiences and continue to perpetuate the legacy of the 'ukulele as a unique cultural island icon.
