Supporting artists through unity and bringing education & culture to our communities.
Access to music affords people the opportunity of a positive experience from which they may previously be excluded. This exclusion may be due to many factors, including a geographical location, economic or educational disadvantage, disability, age, or lack of any previous musical experience or exposure.
The Community Music & arts Network seeks to:
1.Develop the provision of live music and promote the appreciation of music in local communities, including the establishment of pilot community music & arts programs for youth.
2. Provide performance opportunities for musicians and composers to reach a wider audience, to include school children, elderly, hospital, hospice, and community service outreach.
3. Create a research and development network to explore new and appropriate models for community music development and to share advancements in the fields of music therapy and education applications for music. Develop a collaborative line of educational children’s music.
4. Advocate cooperative music initiatives by partnering with agencies that seek the same goals.
