Our next Music Club is June 28th in the Main Library Auditorium and it starts at 4pm. Remember the class is geared to children ages 8-12, but we welcome children ages 6-14.
Our very special guest for this program is Tony Steve! He'll be using our big movie screen to show some silent film shorts as he produces a live soundtrack with percussion instruments. He'll be talking to the children about different percussion instruments, and how they create different moods in cinema.
