James M. Duncan Jr. Branch Library

Butterfly Garden, Beth Patridge Meeting Room

A Rockstar for little language learners!

You won't want to miss 1, 2, 3 Andres! Andrés and Christina are the Latin Grammy-winning music duo 123 Andrés. Their catchy songs and lively concerts get the whole family dancing and learning, in Spanish and English.

Performing their program: The New Instrument
Andrés has a new instrument that he likes to play – but he doesn’t want to share it with Christina. Through this story Andrés, Christina and the audience learn about being friends, sharing and communicating our feelings. As always, 123 Andrés’ trademarks of movement, song and dance make this a high-energy, interactive family event. Best for: preschool to elementary; families.

Weather permitting we will be having this program outdoors, if not we will move the program inside.
