A Sensory Friendly Family Concert

Doors Open at 10:30am

We’re excited to launch the SFCO’s first program designed with our Neurodiverse community in mind. What does that mean? We’ll refrain from sudden loud sounds, our string quartet will be an appropriate volume for the size of venue, and the seating will be a bit farther apart. There will also be some fun hands on activities for those kids 0-12 who wish to participate.
