March is coming in like a lion with the Coalition Team travelling to Sudbury and North Bay for a series of four events for the Ontario Wise Voices for Music. We’ll be in Sudbury to meet with as many as 50 youth for a Youth4Music event on Tues. Mar 3 followed by the second Wise Voices for Music meeting on Wed. Mar. 4. The first meeting in Sudbury was held in May 2012. We’re overdue for a visit!
From there, we’ll travel to North Bay to meet on Thurs. Mar. 5 with youth from various school bands and young musicians who are interested in what they can do through music for their community. On Fri. Mar. 6, we’ll hold a follow up Wise Voices for Music North Bay meeting. We first worked with the dedicated folks of North Bay last January.
Action Teams from both communities have been hard at work encouraging new voices to the initial discussions, and drumming up youth to share how music has positively affected and shaped their lives. If you’d like to attend any of the events, please contact wisevoices@musicmakesus.ca and Jennifer would be happy to add your name to the growing list of participants.
And we plan to be just as busy in April, May and June. We are currently planning Wise Voices for Music events in Toronto, York Region and Huntsville before the end of the school year. Want to take part? Contact Jennifer: wisevoices@musicmakesus.ca to help shape the Wise Voices for Music event in your community.
