Acoustic music lovers gather to hear great music at Black Rose Acoustic Society's open stages, held in the log cabin-style Black Forest Community Center, which was built in 1929 among the tall Colorado pines. Outstanding national and regional musicians regularly grace the stage, and they rave about the Black Rose Acoustic Society audience. Performers often experience the famous Black Rose Stomp, during which the rafters and floors shake with a rousing, sustained stomp of approval. Kids are welcome.

Six-week group lessons for guitar, fiddle, bass, mandolin, banjo, songwriting and more are offered throughout the year; check www.blackroseacoustic.org.
Jams, for all player/singer levels, feature a particular focus each week, including songwriter circles, swing, fiddle, bluegrass, rockabilly, gospel and oldies singalongs.
Kids get into the act at their own jams; they can bring a drum if they don't play an acoustic instrument.
