🍊 Chorlton Arts Festival 🍊
We were delighted to have been a part of this years Chorlton Arts Festival. We had a wonderful evening meeting local families to give an up close and interactive musical workshop.
For many of us, sessions like these were our first experience of classical music, inspiring us to pick up an instrument for the first time. It was so special for us to be able to give this to families in our local area.
It is a huge privilege to live in an area that supports local artists and actively fosters a sense of community.
Thanks so much to @chorlton.arts for having us and to @amehunag who did a wonderful job joining us on first violin.

We are thrilled to announce that through our partnership with the Chorlton Methodist Church, we were able to raise £224 for the Olympias Music Foundation at our fundraising concert.
The Olympias Music Foundation do fantastic work in Greater Manchester bringing happiness, confidence, and aspiration through music to children and communities. Their work provides free or low cost specialised music tuition and music based activities to children, teachers and those with special educational needs and disabilities.
The funds we have raised will gift 10 one-to-one music lessons for children experiencing low income.
We are really proud of our local community for coming together with us to support this extremely valuable cause.
We will be returning to the Chorlton Methodist Church in May as part of the Chorlton Arts Festival to deliver a family based workshop. We hope to see you there!
