The free class for ages 9 through adult combines keyboard fundamentals with games and interactive exercises. Students are expected to attend regularly across the three-month program.

All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
Dallas Public Library’s keyboard class pairs work on technique, music reading and theory with an end-of-quarter goal: learning complete songs for a recital.
Each class lasts 45 minutes. The library’s outline includes technique, reading music and theory, along with games and interactive exercises. Those activities sit alongside the core musical skills, giving the class more than a list of isolated fundamentals.
The stated goal is for students to learn complete songs they can perform at a recital at the end of the quarter. The listing does not give the recital’s date or venue, or say whether it will be open to the public, so it is best understood as a learning goal rather than a separate performance invitation.

Keyboard is one of three instruments in the broader program; guitar and violin are also offered. The listing names J. Erik Jonsson Central Library, Hampton-Illinois Branch Library and Vickery Park Branch Library as program locations. This event’s calendar entry is specifically for Central Library; it does not explain how participants are assigned to a location.
The class is designed as a continuing commitment, not a one-off introduction: the library expects regular attendance throughout the three-month program. Anyone considering joining after the series has begun should ask about placement rather than assume a late start is available.

The class is free, and the library directs interested participants to its registration form. Space is limited; registrants may be waitlisted if the library cannot place them in a class. The listing does not confirm whether spaces remain or whether joining after the series starts is possible, so check before making plans.
The class is open to participants ages 9 through adult. Regular attendance throughout the three-month program is expected.
Instruments are provided during class. The library says some instruments may be checked out but does not specify which ones, so keyboard borrowing is not confirmed. Ask the Fine Arts department about the keyboard arrangements if borrowing an instrument matters to your plans.
