Musical Storytellers Lab

Ignite your child’s imagination at the Musical Storytellers Lab, a tuition-free workshop where children ages 6-10 transform original stories into immersive sonic worlds. Led by award-winning teaching artists Ko Tanaka and Lalit Sritara, this hands-on experience at the Glow Cultural Center invites kids to step away from screens and dive into the tactile world of analog synthesizers. Through a unique blend of character-building and technology literacy, students will collaborate to compose a shared musical performance, learning how to sculpt sound and express complex emotions. Your child will receive personalized guidance as they plant the seeds of a story and watch them grow through melody and machine.
