Join Fairmount Park Conservancy and Music Play Patrol for a movement-based musical program at the Anna C. Verna Playground on Saturday, June 15 from 9:30–11:30 AM. Clap your hands and stomp your feet as we learn new instruments while moving our bodies.

Launched in 2010 by musician/educator Frank Coates, Music Play Patrol (MPP) was founded based on one concept – that children, no matter where they come from or which school district they attend, should have access to a high-quality educational experience. MPP provides music as well as sports education to schools, summer camps, festivals/events, and more.
