Family Festivo
Family Festivo adds an educational experience for all
Music in the Mountains makes it possible for children and families to be exposed to the arts through classical music by presenting free concerts in Durango and Pagosa Springs during the summer festival. Local children’s theatre companies and Ballet Folklorico de Durango perform with the Festival orchestra in annual rotating productions of The Little Engine That Could, Peter and the Wolf or the Town Musicians of Bremen.
The event also includes a variety of hands-on activities and booths featuring food, games, face painting, balloons, and a cake walk. An Instrument Expo provides an educational component by introducing children to the instruments being played and how each instrument can compliment the other.
Family Festivo continues to enrich the cultural lives of our community by exposing it to the beauty of classical music and the arts. Be sure to check the Calendar of Events for Family Festivo activities during the Music in the Mountains Festival!
