Music & Theatre (Ages 0 - 17)
Exposure to the arts from an early age is critical to the cognitive, physical, and social-emotional development of children. Our music and theatre staff share their passion for these arts in classes designed to encourage self-expression and creativity in a nurturing, inclusive environment that promotes literacy and social skills. We want all of our music and theatre stars to shine bright!
Music Discovers (Ages 2 - 4)
This is the next step for Music Explorers who are ready to move and shake on their own, gaining independence with instruments and finding their own voice. Those new to music will also love this upbeat class. Together we will discover more of the how’s and why’s in the music we love. Ages 2 and 3 will need a parent helper.
