Based in Bloomington, Indiana since 2011, the Jim Richter Mandolin Camp for the Rest of Us is in its 13th year and has been a center of mandolin instruction, especially in the genres of blues and rock.

Joining as special guests are Phil Richter, the Banister Bluegrass Band, the Columbus Mandolin Orchestra, and others.
