A “Dulcimer Dayfest” is planned for Saturday, May 17, 2014. Sponsored by Pine Hill Dulcimers & Friends (PHD) of Wiggins and supported by Stone County Arts Council, the event will be held at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church at 1206 Central Avenue (Highway 26) in Wiggins, Mississippi.
Prominent instructors Stephen Seifert of Tennessee and Jess Dickinson of Mississippi will teach Appalachian dulcimer (also known as “mountain” or “lap” dulcimer) and hammered dulcimer, respectively. Full-day registration of $40 covers four classes, a concert by the instructors, breaks and lunch. Preregistration by May 10 is strongly suggested. A limited number of loaner instruments will be available for those who request them, and new/used instruments and other items will be available for sale.
