Learn, Build, Play!
At Boonville Warrick County Public Library, acclaimed musician and educator Monte Skelton leads an interactive instrumental music experience that brings parents and children together through collaboration. It begins with a high-energy, crowd-made rhythm warmup of stomps, snaps, and claps, then explores instrument families as Monte blends winds, strings, and electronic sounds such as the EWI, layering them with live looping to create a full ensemble. Participants move from watching to creating during the Parent-Child Loop Challenges, where volunteers step on stage to record sounds and help assemble a song in real time, showing how every contribution counts. The finale is a hands-on build session focused on partner instruments designed to be played together, so families head home with their own creations and inspiration to keep making music. Designed for children ages 4 to 10 with their parents, the program lasts one hour, with 40 minutes of performance and 20 minutes devoted to instrument building.
