Our next leadership camps are in Spring 2025, in-person in downtown Toronto and online
Are you skilled with a musical instrument? You can spend a few days teaching a group of people some basics on playing a musical instrument. You can give children, youth, adults or seniors the chance to discover or improve their instrumental talents. After all, music knows no age!
How might this help your community?
How might this help your community?
Regardless of age, many people have an interest in music but don't have the resources to learn it professionally.
Sometimes, seniors may think they're too old, or kids may think they're too young, to learn how to play an instrument.
This project will give these people the opportunity to learn music and explore their passions, showing that music is for people of all ages!
