Lobby Activities Volunteers
Looking for a fun way to combine a love of music, children, and education? Assist with lobby activities!

These activities include helping families and children to try the violin, cello, and drums; see the parts of deconstructed violins, cellos, or clarinets or other orchestral instruments; try the basics of conducting or feel the sounds and vibrations from a "hose-a-phone."

Instrument expertise is not required! Training will be provided prior to the activities. To sign up, please email wamso@mnorch.org.
