Sun, Feb 26, 2023, 10AM–1PM 

Free with admission to the grounds  

Meet at Wave Hill House  

Winter is a time of rest for many beings, and a certain kind of magic can be observed in the dormancy, hibernation, and stillness that comes in this season. Document this elusive feeling by creating your own mobiles using an assortment of found and natural objects. 

 

Registration not required.  

 

Questions? Please email us at information@wavehill.org or call 718.549.3200 x251. 

 

The program takes place indoors in the Kerlin Learning Center located on the lower level of Wave Hill House. Please note the following important COVID-related information to ensure everyone’s safety: 

 

  • Approximately nine families will be able to participate at a time, based on the time each family arrives. 

  • If capacity is full when you arrive, we will provide a “come back” card so you will have first entry for the next session. 

  • Each family will receive its own set of materials and cleaning will happen in between seating participants. 

  • Unvaccinated visitors are encouraged to wear a mask inside. 


Wave Hill House is located along a paved route with moderate changes in grade. The building is wheelchair-accessible. There is an accessible, ground-level entrance at the front of the building with a power-assist door. The restroom on the ground level is all-gender and ADA-compliant.

Armor Hall 

This performance features: 

Mikael Darmanie – piano 

Josh Henderson – violin 

Ju Young Lee – cello 

Rick Martinez – percussion 

 

Warp Trio is an internationally touring, cross-genre chamber music experience. Reflecting the juxtaposition of Juilliard-trained musicians with members steeped in rock and jazz styles, the one-of-a-kind trio—that even has a fourth member!—can be seen performing classical works in prestigious halls on the same tour where they headline a standing room-only show at a rock venue. In addition to their electrifying public performances, they have gained a reputation for their innovative educational workshops for students from grade school through university level. 

 

The concert begins at 2PM and lasts approximately one hour without intermission. Ages 8 and older welcome with an adult. 

 

Tickets required, purchase online or by calling 718.549.3200 x251.
