Cowboy Randy Ervin

Families can enjoy a morning of Western-themed fun on Saturday, April 8, when the Center for the Performing Arts teams with Carmel Clay Public Library and the Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art for a special event.

Kids will love cowboy

The main attraction is Cowboy Randy Ervin, who has delighted audiences across the country with interactive performances that include cowboy songs and yodeling, tales from the trail and amazing rope tricks. Ervin also has appeared in commercials and films, including a cameo as the yodeling voice of bad guy Alameda Slim in Disney’s Home on the Range. Kids can hear and participate in music that has made the cowboy such a special part of American history.
