What is a Canjo?
A Canjo is a one string fretted instrument that uses old tin cans as the resonator. They have been around for many years, but was perfected by Herschal R. Brown of Jacksonville, NC, in the early 1900’s. Today, the Canjo is enjoyed by many of all ages.
Linda Henderson: Music Scholarship Program
At Porch Music Store, we are certain that music has the power to change lives. That’s why we’re proud to offer a special program that allows our customers to purchase music lessons for less fortunate children in memory of our beloved colleague and music lover, Linda Henderson.
Ukuleles for Kids
Ukuleles for kids is a program where anyone can purchase a ukulele for a child who otherwise might not ever own an instrument. Local agencies refer the children to us, and we locate business and private donations for the purchase of the ukulele. Porch Music store then provides 3 FREE music lessons to get them started.
If you would like to be a part of this program, please give us a call and we can tell you how to help.
