Virtual Events for Schools
For the 2022–23 school year, we will continue to offer free Virtual Events that can be watched in the classroom. They are timed to celebrate Cultural Heritage months and will be announced throughout the year.
We are excited to announce our first Fall 2022 video, timed to celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month:
Somos Amigos: Songs on Common Ground
Recommended for grades K-6
Available September 26-Oct 14, 2022
*Access is limited to schools in our 60-mile service area*
Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month, friendship is at the heart of this joyful new collaboration between Mexican songstress Sonia De Los Santos and the Americana folk duo The Okee Dokee Brothers. This bilingual program includes both old and new songs that span the musical traditions of North America and illustrate the collective power of singing together and learning from each other. With an adventurous spirit and a common vision of peace and understanding, Somos Amigos encourages young and old to explore, dance, sing and laugh together, hand-in-hand.
The performance is approximately one hour long. It can be watched all at once or in segments. There are also two short bonus videos on Latin American rhythms and Sonia’s instruments.
