The Project

The project will run as a ten week block, one session per week, starting in Spring. There will 10 places available for young people aged 13-17.

Participants will have the opportunity to develop their musical skills and build confidence through a variety of experimental music activities based on their own interests, and across a range of genres, to include: jamming and improvisation, vocal, percussion and guitar workshops, song-writing and recording, stage-craft and performance. Importantly, the project provides the space and support for young people to work creatively together, developing a musical style as part of a collective group.

Discover and Explore

All participants will also be invited to work towards their Discover and Explore or bronze-level Arts Award, a nationally recognised qualification. For more information – www.artsaward.org.uk

The project is managed by Qube and led by Musician Barry Edwards and will also include guest musicians and industry professionals. Ian and Colleen Cruise-Taylor, with a wealth of experience in education and youth work, will provide pastoral support.
