Bring your whole family to our concert and let the kids explore the world of music. Our popular music education/childcare program for kids between 2 months and 10 years runs during and after concerts at St. John the Divine. Kids enjoy fun music and concert etiquette instruction, a trip into the concert hall (for ages 5-10), and an option to stay for pizza and movies after the concert, allowing parents (or grandparents!) to go out for a post-concert dinner.
Features of the ROCO Rooters Program
-
Children are divided into groups by age, with 2 year-olds and under in the nursery
-
An elementary music educator shares a music lesson that relates to the concert program
- Making the transition to audience members, children aged five and up receive humorous instruction in audience etiquette and visit the concert hall for one piece of music
-
Professional childcare/teaching staff manage each age group
- All children may stay for an extended time to enjoy pizza and movies, allowing grown-ups to go out for their own entertainment
Drop-off/Pick-Up
For all Saturday evening concerts at St. John the Divine, adults may drop children off between 4:30-5pm and pick-up following the concert until 9:30pm. Drop-off and pick-up occur at the front desk in the Sumners Hall building adjacent to the concert venue at The Church of St. John the Divine.
