🎶 OddBall SoundJam
🗓 Sunday, February 15
🕚 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
📍 Diana Krall Plaza
☔ Under the creepy sci-fi awnings if it’s raining
OddBall SoundJam is a playful, all-ages, all-abilities curated noise-jam for curious ears and creative bodies. No musical experience needed — just a willingness to listen, explore, and make sound together.
This is a family-friendly space where kids, adults, elders, and first-time sound-makers are all welcome. Come for five minutes or stay the whole time. Participate in whatever way feels right for you.
🎵 What to bring
Some percussion and noise-makers will be provided — or bring anything that:
🔔 clangs · clacks · warbles · squeaks · pops · rattles · crinkles · jingles · thumps
Think: metal bowls, keys on a ring, bubble wrap, chip bags, squeaky toys, wobbly card stock, or other found objects from around the house.
🌈 What to expect
• A gentle, loosely guided sound environment
• Collaborative, playful sound-making — not a performance
• Space for listening as much as sounding
• Come-and-go friendly
📜 Guidelines (to keep it fun for everyone)
🔕 Please keep the sound-making space word-free (save conversations for nearby)
🎛️ This isn’t about being the loudest (no chainsaw energy) — it’s about blending, responding, and shaping a shared, joyful chaos
👂 Care for your ears and each other — step back, rest, or observe anytime
✨ No right way to participate
You can play, listen, move, pause, repeat, or simply be present. Follow your curiosity.
Questions welcome. Weird objects encouraged.
