AOK aka, Accompany of Kids will be performing at the Art and Music Social Fundraiser at John Harbors - See below.
John Shull is the wonderful Artistic Director who started the Accompany of Kids (affectionately know as AOK) 21-years-ago. His own four children have been in the group as well as hundreds of other children.
Currently, AOK has about 100 kids (from several communities) in rehearsals right now for their Holiday Show which you can see at Menomonee Falls North Junior High on the weekend of December 13th and 14th. Times are 1:00, 4:00 and 7:00 PM on Saturday and 2:00 PM on Sunday. AOK have been given the Honor of being named the Musical Ambassadors of Menomonee Falls.
The Accompany of Kids is a nonprofit agency that depends on the generosity of many supporters. They are looking for Corporate Sponsors so if you know of any companies that support the arts, please have them contact this organization. The Accompany of Kids would like to thank the Menomonee Falls Rotary Club for their recent generous donation. AOK will also be having a fundraiser at Barnes & Noble at Brookfield Square on Friday, December 5th. AOK will get a percentage of sales for that day as well as performing at the store throughout the evening hours. So, do your holiday shopping and help donate to the Accompany of Kids! AOK offers programs such as Crescendo, Celebrate and AOK for anyone ages 5 through 20, so if you know of any kids who would enjoy being a part of this group or if you are looking to book some entertainment give AOK a call!
