All ages. With Jeremy Babcock on guitar and vocals, Mani Bances on flute and saxophone, and Lenny Marsh on drums, this magical concert full of stories from the sea is sure to inspire all. TR

The Dreamtree Shakers found each other around the friendly confines of The Old Town School of Folk Music (Chicago, IL) circa 2007, and the band has been using their powers for good ever since. The latest release, Baby Bear Wonders About the Sea, is the fifth full-length studio album with an illustrated book of “songs you can see” to enrich the listening experience. The carefully crafted live show appeals to children of all ages (including the grown-ups in the room), making The Dreamtree Shakers a stalwart in the family-friendly music scene. Books will be available for purchase and signing after the show!

TR = Ticket registration. Limit: 120. Free tickets distributed 30 minutes before the program on a first-come, first-served basis at the Youth Services Desk.
