Children ages two-10, including those with special needs, along with their parents/guardians are invited to a free jazz concert and fun activities Saturday morning, April 18, in A. Lincoln Commons. The event, called “Jazzin’ It Up with LLCC and Friends,” takes place from 10 a.m. to noon.

The LLCC Stolen Moments ensemble will perform at 10 a.m. for approximately 20 minutes, and children will be invited to dance and play along with noisemakers. The event also includes hands-on craft activities and an “instrument petting zoo” where children can view and touch band instruments.
