Open Invitation to get involved with Solihull Young Musicians Support Association
SYMSA is an independent charitable organisation that supports young musicians in Solihull. There are some very visible sides to this through the co-ordination of the Tuck shop at Lyndon Music Centre to fund raising and offering financial support to enhance music making within the Borough.
In the last year SYMSA has funded the purchase of new music stands, sheet music for ensembles, theatre lighting equipment and a grant to assist with the Abbey Road project which saw hundreds of young people perform at the world famous Abbey Road Studios.
We would like to invite you to come and find out a bit more about SYMSA at our AGM which is being held at Solihull Music Service on Thursday 17th October at 4.45pm.
We are looking for people who have children involved in the Music service activities to find out more and see if you can help and get involved. This could be as part of the SYMSA committee, helping out at the Tuck Shop, helping at concerts or bringing your own skills and expertise to the table. However you help you will be promoting music making by young people in Solihull.
Please come along to the AGM to find out more or contact SYMSA on symsa.org@gmail.com
Best wishes
