Do you want to be part of something special?
We’re moving into our newly-refurbished building in the heart of Leeds later this year, and since this will be your space as much as it is ours, we’d love you to collaborate with us on a home inspired songwriting project to mark the occasion.
Led by Thanda Gumede, Dave Evans and Sarah Freestone, we’re running a free, six-week series of online workshops where you’ll explore a wide range of music, craft songs on the theme of ‘home’ and create recordings of your new work. Your songs will form part of a music trail around our new home this Autumn.
Everyone aged 18+ is welcome to take part, and you don’t need to have any musical experience to join in – just bring your imagination!
*Due to popular demand, we have added a new date! These sessions will be led by musician and composer Sarah Freestone.

Mon 22 Feb – Mon 29 Mar

Spaces are limited so please only book one session per person.
