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.
Built with funds from a $120,000 grant by the Andrew Carnegie Foundation, the East Washington Branch opened in 1911, six months before the opening of the city’s other remaining Carnegie Library, the Spades Park Branch. In 2017, a major renovation was completed to modernize the century-old building which is included in the National Register of Historic Places.
