Special Music & Movement Program: The Dreamtime Project

We had such a special treat last Friday when The Dreamtime Project came for Music & Movement! Jim Gagnon entertained us, enlightened us, educated us, and amazed us with his many musical talents! Thank you so much Jim and The Dreamtime Project! Jim’s presentation took us all over the world with stories, songs and instruments from Australia, West Africa, and even here in America! Some instruments we got to see and hear were the Didgeridoo, Native American Flutes, and Drums from West Africa! They all sounded completely different, but we liked them all! All of the Museum’s guests were able to touch and play some of the exotic instruments as well as make music with Jim! Thanks again to The Dreamtime Project and we look forward to your next program!

Wreaths can be sent to ANY location in the continental United States. Shipping & handling are included! We also offer discounts for Museum members and those purchasing more than 10 wreaths. You may also choose a pre- or post-Thanksgiving delivery schedule.
