Programs for Families & Community

Shared music-making with members of The Philadelphia Orchestra and other notable artists

Come sit side-by-side with members of The Philadelphia Orchestra at one of the popular PlayIN events being presented this season. Musicians of all ages across a range of abilities are invited to join the Fabulous Philadelphians onstage—Philly style!—in a shared music-making event that will excite and inspire.

Each PlayIN will be filmed and / or photographed to potentially be used for future promotion.

The Philadelphia Orchestra's PlayINs are funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts.

An introduction to music through storytelling for toddlers.

Sound All Around introduces young listeners to a member of the string, woodwind, brass, or percussion family. These performances are a great way to spark toddler interest in classical music and jazz and provides fun-filled activities for families, preschools, and early elementary school groups.

Kid-friendly favorites and re-envisioned family classics, curated to appeal to the littlest growing arts lovers
