Instrument Petting Zoo
Toot a trumpet! Visit a violin! Cuddle a cello!
Welcome to the Instrument Petting Zoo!
Victoria Symphony’s Instrument Petting Zoo offers young people of all ages the chance to try out real musical instruments in a relaxed, fun environment. It’s a hands-on way to spark a child’s interest in music and explore a variety of sounds and styles.
Our friendly student volunteers will be on hand to guide children on how to properly hold, blow, or bow each instrument—no experience necessary!
