Babies and toddlers up to age 2 with an adult are invited for an introduction to the concert harp and to explore connections between language and music. They'll learn to identify contrasting sounds and understand that musical concepts bring stories to life by communicating feelings and emotions.
This program will be led by Arts for Learning teaching artist Melissa Gallant. Registration is required for each child. Parents and caregivers need not register themselves.
The Southport Branch began in 1967 as a small storefront in the Madison Square Shopping Center. Following acquisition of a site for a larger facility, the new 15,700-square-foot library opened in 1974 on East Stop 11 Road. Even before the move occurred, a group of Perry Township residents demonstrated support by raising more than $5,000 to provide additional books for the new library.
