HAWAII STATE MUSEUM
First Friday Performance
'Ukulele Virtuoso Gordon Mark
 Hear a free musical performance by 'ukulele virtuoso Gordon Mark for First Friday at HiSAM. Mark plays classical music and local standards. He has crafted many original transcriptions in a uniquely beautiful style. He works totally by ear, without written music. In his long career, he has performed with the Honolulu Symphony, the Art of Solo 'Ukulele super group, and many others. Increasingly in demand as a teacher, he has created an easy to learn method to play 'ukulele, which he now shares with students throughout the islands. We also invite you to see our art exhibitions that will be open for First Friday from 5 to 9 p.m. For more information, visit www.hawaii.gov/sfca.
