Community Music Group

The Westside Community Development Project and the VEC have launched a Community Music Group in the Westside Resource Centre on Wednesday nights 7-9pm. The group is open to anyone living in the Westside area over the age of 18 and is free of charge.

The aim of the group is to give community members a chance to meet other people who have an interest in music and to provide a space to learn new skills and have fun. The focus of the group is participative music making, including any and all types of music. Everyone is welcome to join the group regardless of musical or singing ability.

For further details please contact Vernice at Westside Community Development Project on 0879303468.
