Sunday Afternoons for Kids: Musical Phrases, Written Phrases

The Hammer’s collaborative workshops, presented with 826LA., are designed for groups of up to 20 students. Reservations are encouraged. Contact workshops@826LA.org or call 310-305-8418. All workshops are appropriate for ages 8–13.

In this workshop, students interact with improvising musicians using verbal and written language rather than musical instructions. Even without any previous musical background, students will become directly involved with the composition and improvisation process, combining and connecting with music and writing in new and different ways. Brendan Carn is a bassist, composer, improviser, and educator living in Boulder, Colorado.

ALL HAMMER PUBLIC PROGRAMS ARE FREE. Seating is on a first come, first served basis. Hammer members receive priority seating, subject to availability. Reservations not accepted, RSVPs not required.

Easy parking is available under the museum for $3 for 3 hours.
