Outdoor Concert and Meet and Greet with Eric Litwin
Red Balloon and Saint Paul Public Library present Eric Litwin, author of the original PETE THE CAT books, for a free outdoor family musical event! Grab a lawn chair and join us on the courtyard of the Town Square at the Arlington Hills Community Center, 1200 Payne Avenue in St. Paul, for a rockin’ performance, featuring Eric Litwin’s new series, THE NUTS: BEDTIME AT THE NUT HOUSE. Eric will share interactive songs and stories that involve kids from start to finish, and promote the joy of books and music. Get ready to sing, dance, and fall in love with literacy!
In the event of rain, the concert will be held inside the Arlington Hills Community Center.
