The Fiddle Patch
A year-round fiddle club for violinists and fiddlers ready to grow.
Every season — Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer — students dig into a real contest-style fiddle tune, make it their own, and perform it at a seasonal showcase. Small groups. Real coaching. Creative, social, and seriously fun.
