Little ones and their caregivers are invited to join the fun at Family Music Time, a free interactive music program designed especially for toddlers and young children. Led by the talented instructors of Barefoot Music Academy, these engaging classes encourage children to explore music through singing, movement, listening activities, rhythm instruments, and imaginative play.
