Our Kids Saturday Night Dance Parties inspire movement, creativity, and connection. The night includes dancing, learning choreography, arts and crafts, karaoke, and an exciting Silent Disco experience.

Parents are invited to enjoy a night off while we take care of the fun! Simply send your child with dinner or snacks packed, and we’ll handle the rest. At pickup, families will be treated to a short performance showcasing what the kids have learned during the evening.

We begin with calm coloring and guided introduction activities to help children feel comfortable and connected with new friends. The evening continues with a hip-hop dance class, creative craft time, singing, and concludes with a high-energy Silent Disco complete with laser lights.

Drop-off begins at 4:45pm.

We look forward to welcoming your child for a memorable and joyful evening!

Spam can harps, rice bag drums, tin can gongs, and other musical instruments made from repurposed rubbish are on display at Hamilton Library Bridge Gallery now through mid-August. All instruments were custom built by Benjamin Fairfield, author of the illustrated children's book Kani Ka 'Opala: How can garbage sing? Fairfield (lecturer at UH and Hawai'i Pacific University) was featured last October on the Conversation as a climate-action-artist-in-residence with the State Commission on Climate Change in 2025. Come view, play, and listen to an assortment of rubbish instruments. A great way to celebrate Earth Day and aloha 'aina.
