Kingsport Parks and Recreation offering Advanced Guitar Lessons

Kingsport Parks and Recreation is offering advanced guitar lessons next week for anyone interested in expanding their skill with the guitar.

The lessons will take place on Thursdays from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the V.O. Dobbins, Sr. Complex (Douglass Room) beginning October 8 and continuing through October 29. Open to anyone age 7 and older and the cost is $80 for city residents and $90 for non-city residents.

Local guitarist Terry McCoy will lead the lessons and help participants take their guitar playing skills to the next level. McCoy brings years of teaching and performing experience, offering personalized instruction on learning new songs, chords and tunes.

The goal is to develop confidence, musicality and a lifelong love for playing the guitar. Students will need to bring their own guitar.

“If you’re wanting to expand your skill and knowledge of the guitar, these lessons are the best next step for you,” said Program Leader Matthew Hensley.
