HashtagLab 25 11 23

On the 25th of November, 2023 at 10.00 and 12.00 Hashtag Lab invites ĄsąBąble again! This time, the concert for babies 0-3 and slightly older children (aged 3-7) will be accompanied by Intibag sensory objects, flute, piano and percussion instruments.

"Sound Baby" is a sensory concert for families with children, during which we will experience the sensations of contact with Intibag objects and look for the answer to the question: can sound have weight?

Wrapped in layers of the sounds of Morton Feldman and George Crumb, we will look for space to relax and meet what sleeps inside us. The title of the concert refers to weighted blankets, which influence our parasympathetic system, reducing stress and calming down.
