The idea
We have held mini music festivals and this one is going yo be bigger and better. We have chosen to open the library up for a Sunday afternoon early evening to celebrate local music for all ages to enjoy. We have 3 choirs, 6 young singer performers, our own family Ukuelle band, our own Indian tabler drumming group, local steel drumming. All this will lead to our grand finale Ska Band. There will be other rooms in use with workshop throughout the afternoon, from children's crafts, rhythm and rhyme for the very young, children's film club and performance from Thimblemill libraries children's showcase choir. All and more in this lovely little Art Deco library
What we'll deliver
- We will hold a free music festival for the local community
- We will offer free music workshops to all
- We will offer local business a space to sell their merchandise
