Instrument Petting Zoo
1:00 pm – 4:00 pm
presentation by Young Tradition Vermont with the New World Festival
The Instrument Petting Zoo (IPZ) will be installed at this year’s New World Festival between 1pm and 4pm. Stop in and say hello! Zoo keepers would love to see you. If we can get it in the packed out car, we’ll have the cranky with us from Trad Camp too….. sing along with ‘John Henry.’
The IPZ is a collection of instruments that are installed at public and private schools, farmer’s markets, festivals, parks and recreation programs, music camps, and special events with the express purpose of letting people play them: the sign says ‘please touch the instruments!’ More info about the petting zoo here or contact [email protected]
