WORKSHOP RESCHEDULED FOR SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 8
Due to the continuing poor weather, we have decided to reschedule our Saturday, January 18 workshop, “Sharing The Good Stuff” with Patty Bourne. The new date for the workshop will be on Saturday, February 8. Same time and place. (9:30-3, K.B. Woodward Elementary, Surrey).
We recognize that there may be people who were pre-registered who may not be able to make the new date and we will be crediting them for a workshop next season. For those who do not want a credit, a refund is possible, but may take some time.
Please spread the word to anyone you know who may have been planning to come to the workshop or might now be able to come to the new date.
Students are amazing music makers! The day-to-day discoveries we see and hear from our students deserves to be seen and heard by others. This workshop will include a variety of curricular based music content with its potential for elevating performance to both in-formance and student ownership status.
