"Ringlets" Children's Concert

Ringlets is an Embellish outreach program
designed to provide children with an
educational music experience and a basic
introduction to the art of handbell ringing.
Through the combination of hands-on
exercises, creative activities and a fun
setting, Embellish hopes that Ringlets will
help instill a love and appreciation of music
and an interest in handbell ringing for
young people, and the potential future
handbell ringers of the community.

Grand Rapids Children's Museum
Wonder Workshop Room
22 Sheldon Avenue NE
Grand Rapids, MI

Entrance fee into the museum is required (see the Grand Rapids Children's Museum website for admission costs); children under 2 are free.
