UMMA Hosting Children’s Concert with ‘Mr. Harley’
As part of “The Month of the Young Child” celebration, the University of Maine Museum of Art will host a concert for kids and their parents with Maine artist “Mr. Harley” on Saturday, April 30 at 1 p.m. The concert is free and caps off a month of activities focused on early childhood education at the museum.
Mr. Harley has delighted children with his lively guitar throughout New England for six years. In the tradition of The Wiggles, Laurie Berkner and Dan Zanes, Mr. Harley weaves a musical experience that is both entertaining and educational. His shows have just the right blend of classic children’s songs and original pieces such as “I Wanna See You Jump” and “Stegameganoodlefudanappysaurus.” Mr. Harley’s music emphasizes the importance of healthy eating, exercise and using the imagination.
