Join us at Heritage Park in Plover for a hands-on preschool music class where learning and history come together!
Each month we’ll dive into an important musical concept—Pitch, Rhythm, Tempo, Dynamics, and Tone—using singing, movement, games, and instruments to help your child build early music skills.
Classes are held on Saturday at 1:00PM inside our featured exhibit Rhythms of the River: The History of Music in Portage County, where children can connect what they’re learning to the sounds and stories of the past.
Each $5 ticket includes the class, an activity sheet, and access to the exhibit.
Bring your preschooler and make music—and history—come alive with the Portage County Historical Society!
