On Friday, March 6th, four Pakachoag faculty will present a mini-concert to bring some live music to Afternoon Tunes and Pakachoag students and friends.
To help us plan for seating for the drop-in concert, please reserve your ticket in advance using the button below.
We’ll be playing celtic harp, piano, clarinet and flute.
Please allow a little extra time for parking as the back church lot is busy on Fridays. Overflow parking is available as of 5 pm in the WPS Durkin Admin. Building lot; also on-street with meter on Irving and Oxford streets. Entry is at the back of church, off Pleasant Street; toward the right of the parking lot.
The drop-in is informal and particularly appropriate for Music Together families, Pakachoag students who cannot attend the full concert on March 21st, or families interested in learning more about Pakachoag or the Afternoon Tunes Program.
Afternoon Tunes is a free music lesson program for neighborhood children sponsored by All Saints Church. High School aged student teachers teach elementary aged students. Music and instruments are provided on loan.
The program takes place on Fridays during the school year, with lessons scheduled in every room, nook and cranny possible within the All Saints building. Student teachers are coordinated by the AT Student Leadership Team and mentored by a professional educator. All Saints’ choir members provide volunteer support.
