Upcoming Concerts
Virginia Riggs Children’s Concert and Instrument Petting Zoo
Named after a former Central Oregon Symphony cellist with a passion for educating young people (and those young at heart), the Virginia Riggs Children's Concert & Instrument Petting Zoo is fun, educational, and open to all. Every year, the Central Oregon Symphony Association joins forces with the Central Oregon Youth Orchestra (COYO) to put on an interactive and kid-friendly concert after the instrument petting zoo.
This year’s Instrument Petting Zoo will begin at 9:30am, followed by a kid-friendly concert from 11am to noon.
This event is FREE and open to the public! No reservations or tickets required.
