Program Description

Event Details

Join the Ecology Action Center as we explore the true story behind Ada’s Violin: The Story of the Recycled Orchestra of Paraguay by Susan Hood. This colorful picture book tells how children in Cateura, Paraguay, turned trash from their town’s landfill into musical instruments! 

In this hands-on program, kids will create their own instruments from recycled materials, like drums and plastic bottle trumpets, and then come together to play music as a group. It’s a fun way to learn about recycling and music! Geared to ages 5-10, but all are welcome. Don’t forget your grownup!

Registration is required and space is limited.
