The Long Bay Symphony in partnership with Champion Autism Network presents...[Sero-Tune-In]: A Sensory Relaxed Concert!

The LBS aims to honor and enhance the Grand Strand’s commitment to being an autism and sensory-friendly destination by designing a concert that will make the attending experience more comfortable and welcoming for people of all abilities. Maestro Charles Jones Evans has created a 45-minute program around the idea of [Sero-Tune-In] (aka the chemical feeling your brain produces when you hear a feel-good tune!) intended to both educate and engage the audience in a fun, interactive way featuring fan-favorite classics and familiar movie music!

An instrument petting zoo will be held from 2PM to 3PM. Families are encouraged to have an up-close, orchestral experience by interacting with all of the various instruments in the LBS petting zoo, including a violin, trombone, clarinet, maracas, and more!

Symphony staff have put together a pre-concert guide to help you get acquainted with the venue before you join us! Click here to access the guide.

Tickets are $25 for adults and $10 for children 18 and under. The Symphony staff encourages those who require additional accommodations to call the box office when ordering their tickets.
