Youth Community Strings is excited to announce their first community performance of the season at the Children’s Museum of Richmond’s downtown location (2626 West Broad Street)! On Friday, October 11 at 3:30 pm, our third-grade cohort will perform pieces such as Kangaroo in the Pouch, Sleepytime for Baby Gibbons, and more. Admission is required to enter the museum and free parking is available in CMoR’s parking deck. Following the performance, our students will spend the afternoon exploring the museum with their families and friends. We can’t wait to see you there! Thank you to our partners at The Saint Paul’s Baptist Church for all of their support.
