Events

Generally speaking, mountain dulcimer events in Washington - or "nearby" - are few and far between.  However, listed below are events that do take place on a continuing basis.  As more information regarding these or other upcoming events become available, details will be posted here: 

• Bellingham Dulcimer Club meetings are held at the Bellingham Unitarian Fellowship facility.  Meetings are in the Flex Room on the 2nd floor of the Fellowship, which is at 1207 Ellsworth Street, between H and I Streets in the Lettered Streets Neighborhood of Bellingham, WA. Meetings, which begin at 1:30PM and last about 2-hours, take place on the 2nd Saturday afternoon of most months.  If unsure as to whether a meeting is scheduled for a particular month, please right click on "Contact" above to E-Mail a Club member for up-to-date information.
