Explore our musical workshops
At Southern Music Project, we provide more than just music lessons. We also provide a range of bespoke workshops tailored to your event. Whether you’re after Halloween themed workshops, Sea Shanty fun and creative storytelling through music, let us work together to build a workshop just for you. We’ve worked previously with schools, libraries, community centres, care homes, local businesses as well as Brownie and Scout groups.
Half day workshops
Our half day workshops typically run for 2-3 hours. We recommend these for up to 20 people. These can be great for younger children to have a go at a range of instruments during a group setting.
Often incorporating a story specific to your event to be played out by music, these workshops act as the perfect creative outlet. Workshops often end with a mini performance at the end of the session to showcase what students have learnt to parents and guardians before heading home.
Full day workshops
Our full day workshops typically run for 3-4 hours and can cover a whole range of musical activities. These are ideal for up to 30 people.
Groups are often split up into two so that they can work on different elements. Then for the afternoon, the groups can join together and perform what they’ve learnt during the workshop. This can be ideal for older children and adults.
We often collaborate with some of our partners for full day workshops, and can theme them around your event.
Mini workshops
Not sure if a workshop is quite what you’re after? We also offer smaller 30min-1 hour sessions.
These can be a lovely way to incorporate a mini music sessions either as a one off, or these can be made as a series of mini sessions.
These are ideal for slightly smaller groups of up to 15 people per session, and who want to focus on one area of music eg Samba drums, pBuzzes or Ukuleles to name a few.
