In partnership with area libraries, Stories with Music promotes literacy among young children and students through the powerful connection of music and literature. OSFL musicians present a featured storybook set to music, along with other musical selections.
Three groups of OSFL musicians will be performing at libraries throughout Chemung, Steuben, Schuyler, and Tioga counties in July and August 2022.
