Project Joy - Music Session

Project Joy returns with four new sessions: poetry, art and craft, music and cookery. All sessions are suitable for all ages.
This music session is the third of the four new sessions, all taking place on consecutive Saturdays.
Featuring professional musician, teacher and workshop fascilitator Kevin Stannard.

Find joy in singing or playing an instrument in this engaging interactive musical session. During the session, the group will learn and practice a celebratory piece that will be perfomed at the grand finale of Project Joy on 15th November 2025. This session is ideal for those who already enjoy singing or playing an instrument, as well as those who want to try something totally new that will be great fun.

Refreshments included. Those who attend this session will be invited to join us for a celebratory meal on 15th November and will be able to be part of the musical performance at the event if they would like to.
