Pickin' on the Square returns to the Earl Scruggs Center, located on the historic court square in downtown Shelby. The 2019 Pickin' on the Square events are set for Saturday evenings from 5 pm - 8 pm on June 8, July 13, and August 17, 2019. The cost is free and all are invited to attend.
Pickers of all playing levels are encouraged to bring their instruments and participate in a welcoming, informal jam. Secure instrument check is available.
Not a picker? Come, join us and bring your family and friends to enjoy the music. Pull up a lawn chair, sit back and listen as we celebrate the tradition of bluegrass music. Take part in complimentary lawn games and crafts for kids.
In case of inclement weather, the pickin' will be moved inside the Earl Scruggs Center.
