Concert
Singing Storytime with Anna Stange
It's a storytime. It's a concert. It's a special program by Chicago based musician Anna Stange. Anna will be in the area for just a few days so this will be her first and possibly only performance in the Roaring Fork Valley this year. She plans to do songs in Picture Book form, finger plays and lap songs, and some songs using rhythm instruments. This program is open to all children, including daycares and preschools.
Singing Storytime takes place at the Gordon Cooper Branch Library on Tuesday, April 2 at 10:30 am.
