   Blues at Centrum is not just about learning a song. It's about experiencing in a meaningful way the sounds, the stories, the laughter and the pain--indeed the lives--of the faculty and participants at the gathering. It's about making cultural and musical connections. And it's about finding your own voice.
   
   The workshop is a living community with players jamming, sharing and learning. All ages, all abilities--if you're into the blues, you'll do fine here, finding plenty of challenges and opportunities.
