Participants can sign up for up to 2 appointments per month. Appointments are booked on a first come, first served basis. Families will be notified each month and sent a sign up genius via email. Three children can participate in each appointment.
Participants will engage in operating a vinyl DJ turntable rig, jam on instruments and sing along with GIGS instructors, and spend time recording their voice in our recording studio. Each participant will be assisted by a volunteer coach who will guide them through our educational music stations. Drop off is encouraged, however parents and caretakers are welcome to stay and join in on the fun. We encourage participants who utilize mobilization devices like walkers, gait trainers, freedom bikes, etc to show up in their favorite gear to be as independent as possible as they navigate all of our fun stations.
GIGS givers is a certified 501c3 organization. We are committed to offering free adaptive music instruction as we continue to support families raising a child with special needs.
