I hope everyone will come out to enjoy a music-filled day at the garden with, crafts, games and more.”

The lineup consists of KidStock favorite Alex and the Kaleidoscope band, Dirty Sock Funtime Band and Joanie Leeds and the Nightlights. Bach to Rock Port Washington will have hands-on and interactive opportunities for children to explore musical instruments. All the festival acts will inspire and encourage children to celebrate and learn through the power of music and creativity.
