Family Music Series Upcoming Schedule:

April 1 at 2:00pm: Two Old Friends
The duo Two Old Friends features seasoned musical professionals, Mac McHale and Emery Hutchins, singing and playing songs from Ireland, the mountains and the sea. Mac and 'Hutch' are best known as the founders of Northeast Winds. These multi-talented musicians will be playing the banjo, guitar, mandolin, bodran and the harmonica in this fun, interactive performance.

The Family Music Series was started to give children an introduction to live professional musical entertainment in a relaxed, interactive setting. Performance genres have ranged from classical to contemporary, as well as music from a variety of world cultures, and more than 20 groups and individuals have performed at the museum through the years.
