Let’s get up and dance, and make music together! After some captivating stories about trumpets and a great guitarist who “painted” with sound, musician John Blevins will lead children to explore their musical creativity and experiment with quirky electronic instruments and effects pedals to record sounds!
The books and activities are aimed toward kids 4-10, but all are welcome to learn and play. The event is open to the public, and all supplies will be provided. We ask for a suggested donation of $15 per child to help support the program, but welcome all to participate regardless of ability to pay.
