The sound of a ukulele quickly conjures images of floral print shirts, coconut-flavored drinks and the crash of the Hawaiian surf. Which is the complete opposite picture of a central Pennsylvanian winter. Nevertheless, the ukulele flourishes no matter the climate.
The small, four-stringed instrument will soon be available at four Centre County libraries thanks to the initiative of the Allegheny Ukulele Kollective, an Altoona-based ukulele club. The Kollective is seeking to make the instruments available to 32 regional libraries.
