Do you love to write? Or have an interest in exploring music? It doesn’t matter if you’ve never written songs before, we are an open group for anyone of any ability!
Our Song-writing Group meet monthly to work with amazing composers, singers, writers and musicians to create new music and poems inspired by the stories in our collection and your own experiences.
In this session we will be exploring different stories from the collection to inspire our next musical project. The workshop will involve a range of writing activities and a chance to explore initial melodies. You’d be most welcome to bring an instrument to the session, but please note this isn’t necessary to partake.
Don’t worry if your new to the group, our doors are always open for new members – it’s a supportive space to try something new! No writing or music experience necessary.
