1:00pm - Family Matinee
7:30pm - Evening Pops

https://www.concertforkids.net/

Start off your holiday season with the Concert for Kids 2019.  The annual Concert for Kids is a holiday concert that supports our community by raising funds and awareness for the WBAL Radio Kids Campaign.  Since it premiered in 2007 as an opportunity for the twenty-plus student orchestra to give back to the community, the Concert for Kids has raised over $90,000 for the WBAL Radio Kids Campaign.  No longer a "little event", the Concert for Kids has grown into a concert featuring professional singers, choirs, dancers, and students from many Howard County high schools.  

The Family Matinee is a slightly abbreviated version of our Evening Pops performance.  Only $12 for Adults and $8.00 for children 12 and under, the Family Matinee is full of the music, dancing, and stories that are traditional highlights of the Evening Pops concert.  The Family Matinee also features a special story read by Jolly Old Saint Nick himself.  As a special bonus, children 12 and under will receive a holiday craft to take home.

The Evening Pops is where the Concert for Kids began.  The Evening Pops is a holiday extravaganza featuring choir, orchestra, dance, and our special guest artists and WBAL Radio personalities.  Appropriate for all ages, this concert will set your toes tapping and hearts jingling as you begin your holiday season.  

The Holiday Boutique continues to offer more ways for you to support the Concert for Kids.  Opened as part of the 2013 Concert for Kids, the Holiday Boutique features hand-made crafts and decorations by local artisans, volunteers, and students.  In addition to getting a start on your holiday shopping, you can take pictures with Santa, have your children make a special craft and more.  The 2019 Holiday Boutique will be open from 11:00am to 3:00pm and 5:30pm to a half an hour after the evening performance ends.

Finally, we will also continue the "Pay-It-Forward" program for each of the concerts.  By purchasing a "Pay-It-Forward" ticket you are giving us the opportunity to help a family in need enjoy the concert.  "Pay-It-Forward" tickets are available for both the Family Matinee and Evening performances.  Please consider helping our families in need experience the joy of the holiday season by purchasing a "Pay-It-Forward" ticket.

Come kick off your holiday season with Concert for Kids!
