PRELUDE PAINT NIGHT: A CLASSICAL MUSIC ART EXPERIENCE

Tuesday, February 4, 2025 at 7 pm at The Dragonfly Art for Life Gallery & Studio

$40 a person

Join us for a unique and inspiring evening as we collaborate with The Dragonfly Art For Life Art Gallery & Studio to present Prelude Paint Night: a classical music-inspired art experience! Just as Disney animators drew inspiration from iconic classical pieces like Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite and The Sorcerer’s Apprentice to create the magical world of Fantasia, you’ll have the chance to let the music fuel your own artistic vision.

Before we start painting, artist Patrick Barr, resident artist of The Dragonfly Art for Life will talk about his experience as a Disney animator. We’ll then play selections from our concert and let your imagination go wild! Whether you're an experienced artist or a beginner, this event is sure to be a night of inspiration and fun!

Cost includes supplies & support from the artists of The Dragonfly Art for Life. Ticket to the concert is not required or included.

SENSORY-FRIENDLY OPEN REHEARSAL OF MODESTO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA’S THE FOUR SEASONS MIXTAPE

As part of our values to create a warm and welcoming environment for everyone, the Modesto Symphony Orchestra will have a sensory-friendly rehearsal of The Four Seasons Mixtape on November 1, 2024.

A Sensory-Friendly Open Rehearsal is designed to create a welcoming symphonic experience for people with autism, sensory input disorders, sensory sensitivities, or other physical, cognitive, or developmental disabilities, and their families and caretakers. The rehearsal is adapted for persons with light and audio sensitivities, and to allow for patron movement and talking. A sensory-friendly rehearsal is also a great way for young ones to experience the symphony for the first time. All are welcome to experience the MSO in a safe, non-judgmental environment.

Rehearsal attendees are invited to come and be themselves. Etiquette expectations will be relaxed, talking or vocalizing is accepted. Patrons may move freely in their seats and the aisles, within appropriate safety parameters.
House lights will remain on throughout the rehearsal.
Some loud sounds and notes will be modified for this performance.
Seating is general admission, and wheelchair spaces are available. Please let us know if a wheelchair space is needed.
