The annual Chords for Kids Concert, a special event for children with special needs, is scheduled to begin at 7PM Sat., March 2, at Wentz Concert Hall. 

This performance is where music and motion come together to bring unique experience to all – and wigglers are welcome. It’s an all-around family-friendly affair. All families and all ages are invited to enjoy the music, ranging from classical pieces to popular tunes.
