Here are the upcoming special programs and events you can enjoy at the Children's Museum:
 

Musical Fusion Workshops with the Ortner/Roberts Duo
August 8 and 9, 1:30 pm each day

Discover how a spirited sense of play can lead to totally new musical sounds with the Ortner/Roberts Duo! Enjoy a unique musical performance by clarinetist Susanne Ortner-Roberts and pianist Tom Roberts that fuses harlem stride piano of the early jazz era with traditional klezmer music from Eastern Europe. Then experiment with rhythm and improvise in a group workshop right alongside the musicians.

The Ortner/ Roberts Duo has performed throughout the Eastern United States and Germany.

This project was made possible through the Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts program of the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.
