For over 30 years, wcfsymphony’s Lollipops concerts have inspired the Cedar Valley’s youngest audiences. Now, with a fresh focus on interactivity and creativity, we are proud to introduce the next evolution of these beloved community concerts: Music Lab!

Music Lab is an annual series of free concerts for kids, featuring small ensembles performing music from a variety of genres. Each event includes our popular Instrument Petting Zoo, giving young listeners the chance to explore instruments firsthand and extend their musical experience beyond the performance. Free Music Lab performances launched in October 2022 and continue to bring the joy of music to our community.

This free series is made possible in part by generous support from individual donors, Steve and Terri Jackson Family Fund, The Max and Helen Guernsey Charitable Foundation, and The McElroy Trust. We welcome and appreciate any contributions to help sustain this valuable community program.
