Alli Villines and Charissa Hoffman push the limits of what is generally expected from the four-stringed ukulele, incorporating threads from their stories and experiences into a tapestry of sound.
In partnership with McNeese Banners, the library will host this melodic program. Both women trace the roots of their relationship with the ukulele, traditionally a Hawaiian instrument, through their connections to their families, their southern home states and communities, themselves, and eventually each other.
The Central Branch is in South Lake Charles and is the library system's main branch.
The location houses both the Central Branch and the library's administrative offices.
This location offers various seating locations throughout the building, public computers, laptops that can be checked out and used in the library, self-checkout stations, faxing, scanning, and printing services, study rooms, and several large sized community rooms.
