Carnegie Hall invites students from the age of 6 -12 to come join in the fun and explore the wonderful world of the arts. Create your own clay creatures, visit outer space, and launch marshmallows from catapults built in class. Be a part of an archaeological dig, learn to paint like a Viennese artist, and learn how to play the recorder.
