FREE SUMMERTIME MIDDAY CONCERTS FOR KIDS & FAMILY

PRESENTED BY ALLY MEDICAL EMERGENCY ROOM

DISNEY'S FANTASIA FILM SCREENING

Tuesday, August 6 at Noon | Draylen Mason Music Studio

KMFA announces a new series of Free Summertime Midday Concerts for Kids & Family coming to the Draylen Mason Music Studio. The events are designed with preschool and elementary aged children in mind combining the art of story telling with classical music.

As a special treat, we're presenting a special film screening of the 1940 American animated musical anthology Walt Disney's Fantasia in its entirety on Tuesday, August 9 at Noon.

Recommended for elementary aged and older children

Walt Disney’s timeless masterpiece is a celebration of sight and sound, featuring eight sequences marrying classical music with the most innovative animation of its day. See dancing fairies, fish, flowers, mushrooms and leaves in the "Nutcracker Suite"; follow Mickey Mouse in his iconic role as "The Sorcerer's Apprentice"; laugh along with a comic ballet starring hippos, elephants, alligators and ostriches in "Dance of the Hours"; and hold on to your seat when the evil Chernabog summons restless souls in "Night on Bald Mountain." Watch the music come to life, hear the pictures burst into song and experience the excitement that is Fantasia.

Relive the magic of this wonderful introduction of classical music to young people at a special screening of the film as part of KMFA's Free Summertime Midday Concerts for Kids & Family. 

This screening is free and open to the public when you RSVP in advance to reserve your seats.

RSVP FOR FREE

Come early for a cookie & refreshment reception before the film courtesy of Quack's Bakery!

Guests are asked to arrive no later than 11:45 a.m. at the KMFA building, located at 41 Navasota Street, to guarantee seating.
