Every year, The Crowden School opens its real-world door to the community for a day filled with free hands-on music experiences for children. This year will be modified from the traditional version, with a hybrid event for those who prefer to stream at home and in-person activities for those who wish to join.
The Crowden School is located on Rose Street and Sacramento Street in Berkeley.
Here’s what to expect:
Instrument Petting Zoo: This gigantic Zoo is waiting for you to try an instrument or two… or six! Try all the different instruments of the symphonic orchestra to receive a very special prize. There are even miniature violins and cellos for tiny hands and fingers!
Very First Concerts with the San Francisco Chamber Orchestra: What does that little stick do! in which the role of the conductor is explained. (Repeat performances at 10:45am, 11:30am, & 12:15pm for families with kids age 0-7)
Musical performances for all ages throughout the day
Class demonstrations
Instrument making
Music sale
This event is free, however, due to popular demand, free tickets to Very First Concerts will be issued at Community Music Day on a first-come, first-served basis.
