News From Britt Hill – July 2017
If you haven’t heard yet, thanks to Southern Oregon Subaru, we are expanding our free children’s concert series and introducing our new mascot, Scout. Scout says ALL KIDS of ALL AGES are invited and no tickets are needed! All performances start at 10:00am in the Britt Performance Garden—just show up early to get good seats!
BrittKids Koncerts create a fun and casual setting to help local families introduce their children to orchestral instruments and the many styles of music they can play. Developed and created by Jenifer of JenUwin Playtime and Gabriel Globus-Hoenich, these free concerts help the next generation of musicians and audience members learn about different musical traditions in a way that is both engaging and enlightening. All concert programs focus on interactivity with the audience, giving young audience members the chance to participate in live music. Early exposure to live music will increase the interest of children and families in musical activities, such as concert attendance, learning an instrument, and playing in a school ensemble.
