Introduce your little explorers to the joy of symphonic music with Eugene Symphony’s 2026/27 Family Musical Adventures series, a fun, four-part concert series designed for families with young children.

Join us this Saturday, October 24, for a Halloween-themed musical adventure featuring the String Family—violin, viola, cello, string bass, and harp. Led by Evynne Hollens, each interactive, story-driven performance brings the orchestra to life, helping children discover the unique sounds of different instruments, spark their curiosity, and nurture a lifelong love of music. Costumes are strongly encouraged!

Recommended for ages 0-12. All children must be accompanied by an adult.

Free and open to the public. No ticket required.
