David Adler Music & Arts Center Gives Very Young Musicians a Chance to 'Meet the Strings'

On Tuesday, February 21 from 5:15 - 6 pm, children can 'Meet in Strings' in a special workshop introducing the violin, viola, cello, guitar, and ukulele. This class is for ages 0 -5 and their caregivers.

Participants will be able to touch and try a variety of string instruments, while enjoying songs and sounds played by string experts!

Meet the Strings participants can also register for the Prelude Program, a specially designed group of classes for children and their caregivers. A new six-week session begins February 28th.

The Adler Center's Prelude Program is designed for ages 0 - 5 years and uses musical play to strengthen the bond between parent and child while giving children critical early exposure to music. Learn songs, lullabies, chants and rhythm games as your child develops important skills that will foster a life-long appreciation of music.

"Friendships are formed between families," says Christine Albarran, Early Childhood Coordinator, "And parents leave feeling confident they can continue to foster their child's musical growth."

Additionally, Parents and children can "drop-in" for a class each Tuesday from 5:15 - 6pm.
