How does a pipe organ actually work? What does it feel like to sit at a four-manual console? How do nearly 8,000 pipes produce sound? Find out at our Fourth Annual Family Organ Day, a free and interactive morning designed for curious minds of all ages. Visitors will explore First Church's two magnificent organs up close: the grand four-manual 1931 Kimball and the 1972 Rudolf von Beckerath Gallery organ. Children will also get to build and play a real working pipe organ using the Orgelkids kit, a traveling educational program developed in the Netherlands that empowers young children to assemble a working two-rank, two-octave pipe organ. No musical experience needed. Just come ready to listen, ask questions, and discover the king of instruments.

Free and open to the public
