NSO Musical Playspace
Program Name
Hands on fun with instruments! Children (and their caregivers) have the chance to get up close and personal with the orchestral instruments they will see professionally played on stage.
A project of the Volunteer Council for the National Symphony, Musical Playspace accompanies NSO Family Concerts, NSO Music for Young Audiences, and other family events. Our Musical Playspace has also traveled to THEARC and is part of the annual NSO In Your Neighborhood program.
