Instrument Petting Zoo

Get Ready for a Wild Experience

The Instrument Petting Zoo brings kids (and grown-ups) an up-close and personal encounter with a menagerie of musical instruments at community events throughout San Luis Obispo County.

Symphony Zookeepers will introduce you to all of the well-loved and well-used instruments in our collection, and help you figure out how to make some noise! Learn more about the different types of instruments, how each one creates a unique sound, and how they are played.

Cost

The Instrument Petting Zoo fee is $250. Priority is given to Title 1 schools and nonprofit organizations. To schedule an event, please fill out the Music Van Request form.

If you have any questions, please contact Grace Seng, Music Education manager at grace@slosymphony.org.

Support

The Instrument Petting Zoo brings  music education to children throughout the year. For many children who visit the Instrument Petting Zoo, it is the first time they get to see, touch, and play a real orchestral instrument.
