NORTHWEST FOLKLIFE AND TOWN HALL: SATURDAY FAMILY CONCERT WITH with Shpilkis

SHPILKIS IS SEATTLE’S SLAMMIN’ KLEZMER BRASS BAND BRINGING YOU OLD-SCHOOL YIDDISH GROOVES WITH TUCHUS-SHAKING ENERGY.

Town Hall Seattle is proud to partner with Northwest Folklife this winter and spring to curate a series of Saturday Family Concert events! Through music, dance, and visual art, the series showcases the diverse cultures here in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest and offers a special opportunity for young people and families to interact with culture, not just be witness to it.

The season’s theme focuses on Art as Empowerment, exploring how protest music is a form of liberation, emancipation, and validation of identity. The 4-part Winter/Spring series brings awareness to issues that affect everyone at any age, and encourages and enables young people and families to explore their heritage — past, present and future — as a source for individual and collective identity.

All Saturday Family Concerts are FREE for ages 22 and under.
