Music Together of the Treasure Coast
Jodi Hirth, Director
At an outreach program run by Music Together of the Treasure Coast in Stuart, Florida, families in one of the center’s parent-child music and movement classes have a unique experience. Senior citizens from the Martin County Center on Aging join this class, singing and dancing along with the children and their parents or caregivers, giving the infants, toddlers, and preschoolers the chance to befriend senior citizens besides their own grandparents. For many of the senior students, participating in class is a highlight of their week.
