The Native American flute’s haunting, soothing sound has been used for centuries to summon spiritual energy. This six-hole wooden flute is an easy instrument to learn. Maine music teacher and recording artist Laura Lee Perkins (right) and Micmac flutemaker Ken Green will bring the joy of their popular “Learn to Play” classes to Rockland on March 29, where they will hold two classes at Archipelago, the retail store of the Island Institute.

“The sound of the Native American flute,” says Perkins, “reverberates deeply within the human soul … as a flute teacher and performer, it has been my lifelong mission to bring the joy of music-making to more people.”

Pre-registration is required. For further information or to register, call Archipelago at (207) 596-0701. The fee for this workshop is $18.00. Classes will be held at the Island Institute, 386 Main Street.
