Join Us for The Sounds of Winter

Did you know that Winter is the best time to hear animal sounds because sound travels better through cold air? Come learn other interesting facts about winter and practice your rhythms on world drums, warm up your voices, and listen for the sounds of winter. We’ll have STEAM activities galore for PreK-6th graders! What better way to “beat” the boredom of a cold winter’s day than to explore sound and play?
