About Concerts for Kids!
Concerts for Kids began when bar owner Robert Gomez heard from young families in the neighborhood that they needed more entertainment options for their kids. His daughter was taking classes at the Old Town School of Folk Music. Gomez got to know the incredibly talented instructors, learned that they wrote their own music and were looking for outlets to perform with their full bands. Beat Kitchen and the children's performers combined resources that resulted in Concerts for Kids! Now in its eigth year, Concerts for Kids is a popular series for Chicago’s parents with regular Sunday noon shows that attract talented children's music performers from across the U.S.
ChiIL Mama's daughter, Sage, juggled for the kids & helped them play with the instruments.
ChiIL Mama's son, Dugan (12), blew up balloons & helped the younger kids explore the instruments or spin to win prizes.
