Music Workshops – Coming soon!

Do you like music?

Would you like to create your own sound?

Have you an idea for a music project?

If the answer is yes to any of these, then these workshops could be for you!

Using computer music software, you will be able to compose your own music, and play instruments in the software. You may enjoy singing, or recording, editing, and mixing your ideas? These small group sessions are for people aged 50 plus living with some form of sight loss or other disabilities, and will be driven by you as a group, in a safe supportive environment.

Spaces will be limited!
