Fischoff’s S.A.M. I Am (Stories & Music) with Amo Brass @ St. Joe County Public Library

About this event

Amo Brass performs an interactive musical retelling of the beloved children’s book Giraffes Can’t Dance at the St. Joseph County Public Library as part of Fischoff’s Stories & Music program!

Fischoff’s S.A.M. I Am, Stories & Music program, reinforces the joy of reading through the power of music. Using music to crack open language and storytelling, Fischoff Educator Award Winner Amo Brass will delight children and families with a musical adventure. Based upon Giles Andreae’s story, join the fun as Gerald the giraffe finds his signature dance moves with the help of his new friend, Cricket. Dust off your boogie shoes as we tango, cha-cha, waltz, reel, and rock out to this family favorite book! ASL interpretation will be provided. Join us after the show for hands-on activities, including a visit by a surprise ambassador animal from the Potawatomi Zoo!

11:00 AM – 12:00 PM: Free, all-ages performance in Leighton Auditorium

12:00 – 1:00 PM: Hands-on activities, book giveaway, and meet-and greet in the Community Center Ballroom
