Music Workshop

Parents can respond to the GVRD's Zero-Waste initiative, by enrolling their kids from ages 7-14 at
the Sustainable Music Factory workshops. Sustainability
with history, art and music. With the aid of solar-charged tools, recycled materials can be artfully transformed into diatonic music instruments and used to perform stress-reducing busking-style concerts.

There is a connection to art and history, too. Students
will manufacture tuned musicalinstruments, made from recycled materials, using digital orchestral-tuning devices, powered by earth-friendlier, recycled batteries. After making their artistic or creative musical instruments, they will perform concerts, with flair. Solar-powered stress meters will be used before and after a concert. No previous musical knowledge is required.

Kids will research the history of musical instruments. With sufficient hours attended, each student will have
a complete set of instruments capable of playing human
carillon concerts, and be able to lead a group. Link to
