NORTH PARK — The North Park Village Nature Center will host an afternoon of free music, dancing, crafting, recreation and nature on Saturday.
The Music to My Ears and Feet: Wanderlust in Nature event is part of the Chicago Park District’s night out in the parks programming and starts noon Saturday at North Park Village Nature Center Park, 5801 N. Pulaski Road.
“It is free and fun and intentionally intergenerational to get people of all ages together to relax, enjoy and appreciate music and dance within a nature setting — including the 700 seniors living on the North Park Village campus,” said Alexa Schutz, economic development coordinator at the North River Commission.
In addition to live music, the nature-based activities will be led by the Nature Center Youth Council and summer camp counselors.
