The company\u2019s music education side, Joyful Noise Studios \u2014 which offers Kindermusik classes, group lessons, and private instruction \u2014 has also relocated downtown, to 110 West Walnut.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_font-claude-response-body x_break-words x_whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cThree months felt like a long time, and honestly there were moments we weren\u2019t sure we\u2019d reopen at all,\u201d Burrows said. \u201cIt was this community believing in us that got us here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_font-claude-response-body x_break-words x_whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\">Joyful Noise wasn\u2019t alone in feeling the impact \u2014 several other businesses at Salina Central Mall were also displaced by the hail damage, and are in various stages of finding new homes around the city.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_font-claude-response-body x_break-words x_whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\">Timing works in the community\u2019s favor: the statewide Sunflower Summer program offers free admission at participating attractions through August 8, giving families one more reason to stop by before the deal ends. Admission is free with the Sunflower Summer app.<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_font-claude-response-body x_break-words x_whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\">Joyful Noise Playhouse is open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Sunday, 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. The venue hosts birthday parties and offers full-space rentals, with additional expansion planned down the road.
