A Well-City Salisbury creative course for well-being from ArtCare and musician Daniel Lickard.
The workshops focus on how music brings us together, allowing rhythm to create a sense of community and unity amongst us. Participants will cover the fundamentals of rhythm, how it ties music together, and how our individual part in music helps to create the bigger picture.
Over the 8 week period, participants will learn how to count in musical time, play various rhythms, read basic notation, study music and gain experience playing as part of an ensemble. The workshops aim to help participants hear how the rhythms serve as the building blocks to music, while trying to deliver a deeper positive message about how our contributions to something matter, no matter how small they may feel to us.
Sessions will take place every Wednesday evenings, 29 May - 24 July (no session 26 June) 6 - 8:15pm
A optional (but encouraged!) welcome session will take place on Wednesday 22 May, 6 -7pm and is a opportunity to meet your facilitator, other participants, and visit the space prior to the course starting.
At the end of the 8-week course there will also be the opportunity to attend a celebration session on Wednesday 7 August, 6 - 7:15pm. A chance to come together and celebrate everyone’s creativity and time spent together.
This course is available for adults 20+.
Well-City is a Salisbury based partnership project providing creative opportunities to support mental health and well-being through arts and heritage. The project primarily uses a model where participants are referred onto a course by their GP practice, support organisation, community group or school wellbeing team. However, we also welcome self-referrals.
