Music Bridge

Music Bridge works across the North West, engaging communities and individuals through music. We provide an innovative and exciting programme of engagement through music, delivered by trained and experienced community musicians and music therapists. We are also a training provider for cultural/youth organisations and community practitioners across the region who wish to use music as a tool for community engagement and development.

Our programmes have been developed in collaboration with Musicians without Borders, an international non-profit organization which uses music as a tool for peace building and reconciliation in current and post-conflict regions, and Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin, a pioneer in bringing a multi-ethnic approach to the exploration of arts and culture. We train musicians, and youth and community workers in the principles of community music-making, leadership, facilitation skills and nonviolence and help build the capacity of local organisations to facilitate community work through musical interactions, making a meaningful contribution towards community development and peace-building in the region.
