Open invitation to a lunchtime concert on Tuesday May 10th 12.30pm to 1.30pm in Christ Church Cathedral, celebrating ‘The People we Grow Up to Be’, an Intergenerational music project between the children of Kilmacthomas National School and Waterford Libraries’ Bealtaine Choir.
‘The People we Grow Up to Be’ was initiated by Music Generation Waterford and Waterford Libraries, the aim of the project was to create an intergenerational collaborative experience using music and song to share stories, express feelings and explore mutual connections within the community while enabling a positive ageing and mental wellbeing for younger and older people. The concert will include songs from the project sung by the children and choir, alongside readings by Lani O’Hanlon and young classical guitarists from Kilmacthomas National School.
The project was funded by the Creative Ireland Programme, Waterford
In your own time you are also invited to visit the project exhibition which is currently on display in the Index Gallery Central Library, Lady Lane until 18 May.
