Connecting to Jazz
Young people audience members will participate in the concert through group interaction, helping musicians to match music to different cartoon characters and even composing musical compositions.

The Newark Museum is graciously opening their museum space for guests to tour free following the concert.

WHAT IS WBGO KIDS JAZZ??

Discover America’s original musical art form at the WBGO Kids Jazz Concert Series – a free concert series bringing jazz culture and performance to your neighborhood. WBGO presents these concerts during the Spring and Fall on Saturday afternoons. These interactive, hour-long concerts give kids opportunities to learn about the distinct qualities of jazz, and why it’s a reflection of our community, our nation, and our world! Arts, Venues, and Topics change from concert to concert so be sure to come back often. Q&A sessions with the artists, small gifts, and a chance to win a door prize are just some of the reasons to come out and join us! Full series calendar at www.wbgo.org/kids .
