EVENTS
In 2010 we threw two magical events, in London and then in New York City. Both shows had jumping bumbly children in attendance, alongside smiling parents and music appreciators. Charitable donations from both audiences totalled over $2000, which benefitted the NSPCC and The Valerie Fund. Commemorative posters by lullaby illustrator & designer Kate Garchinsky are available on Etsy. Scroll down to see great videos from the events.
