Jazz at Lincoln Center's WeBop! Family Jazz Party: Painted Beats, presented by the Jewish Museum, will take place at the Museum on Sunday, November 23 at 2:30 pm. Parents can spark creativity and musicality with Jazz at Lincoln Center's sellout WeBop! program for families with children ages 3 to 8 years. Attendees will join the WeBop! Family Band for this interactive jazz party exploring the connections between jazz and the art works of Lee Krasner and Norman Lewis. Families will help add color and shape to the music while learning how jazz and art share many similar qualities.

Tickets are $18 per adult; $13 per child; $15 adult Jewish Museum family level member; and $11 child Jewish Museum family level member. Adults are asked to accompany their children. For further information regarding family programs at The Jewish Museum, the public may call 212.423.3337. Concert tickets can be purchased online at TheJewishMuseum.org/programs/families#concerts. The Jewish Museum is located at Fifth Avenue and 92nd Street, Manhattan.

Celebrating its 10th anniversary year of programming the most swinging early childhood music classes in New York City, WeBop! provides creative experiences for parents and children featuring jazz as a vehicle for self-expression, communication, and play through singing, movement, playing instruments, and storytelling. Like jazz musicians, students move freely within a commonly understood structure, an environment that encourages all to participate in an improvisatory spirit, each contributing in their own way to create a unique ensemble.

The Edgar M. Bronfman Center for Education's school and family programs are supported by endowed funds established by the Bronfman Family, the Muriel and William Rand Fund, the William Randolph Hearst Foundation, the Helena Rubinstein Foundation, Rosalie Klein Adolf, the Kekst Family, and Mrs. Ida C. Schwartz in memory of Mr. Bernard S. Schwartz. Family programming is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council.
