Mariel Bildsten and her quartet will perform and narrate
an interactive jazz performance for young people. Kids will learn about
the foundation of jazz music, improvisation, swing, and the blues.

Friday, Nov.
10, at 11:00 AM & 1:30 PM
Kalien the Alien is the story of a young
accidental visitor to Earth from another planet. Seeking help at the
local elementary school, Kalien interacts, sometimes comically, with
their Earthling contemporaries. Throughout one magical day, our alien
learns — and teaches — about acceptance, anti-bullying, and fun!
Social-emotional development and poignant understanding of equity,
diversity, and inclusion come to life for Pushcart’s young learners.
Based on the song of the same title by children’s pop music icon, mr.
RAY (Ray Andersen), the production supports pathways to learning in
music appreciation and science.
