[Call for Participants] COBO Children’s Town Special Workshop

[COBO Kids' Town Special Workshop!]
Using “Ototo”—an electronics kit that turns just about anything into a musical instrument—along with everyday materials like cardboard, we’ll create our very own original instruments!
What shape will they be? What will they sound like? How will we play them? A guitar? A drum? A trumpet? An instrument of the future?
Of course, beginners to electronics and music are more than welcome!

At the end of the workshop, you’ll get to play alongside U-zhaan, a tabla player! Create
your very own instrument and have fun playing with a professional musician! You can take your
creation home with you—maybe it’ll spark some new creative ideas at home too!?
We’re still accepting applications!
