Musical Instrument Petting Zoo

Your kids can try their hand at real instruments during this hands-on activity at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. You'll get to bow a fiddle, pluck a banjo, strum a ukulele, and explore other instruments in a casual, welcoming setup. Trained instructors are on hand to help guide you through each one, so whether your child is picking up an instrument for the very first time or already plays, there's something to discover. This drop-in program welcomes all ages and takes place in the Taylor Swift Education Center. It's included with your regular museum admission, and the activity runs for two hours, so you can come whenever it fits your schedule. If you're a museum member, your family gets in free. Tennessee residents under 18 also qualify for free admission, with discounts for accompanying adults.
