Musical Picnics are warm, original and participatory performances for children, parents and families — a wonderful way to fall in love with the world of music. Each month brings a different musician or artist, with styles ranging from flamenco to folk, beatboxing to bebop, opera to ouds, and much more. Most performances are best suited to children aged 3–8, but everyone is warmly welcome — from babies to great grandma!
