As in previous years, TTCM 2022 will embrace an ethos of provocation and inclusivity. Day one of the event will involve presentations, workshops and conversations exploring the theme: How do we prepare community musicians for the challenges of 21st century practice? Presenters and topics will include:
- Ben Vleminckx, Evolve Music: How do we diversify the community music workforce and make training opportunities accessible to underrepresented individuals?
- Dr Ignacio Agrimbau & Marie Negus, SoCo Music Project: Sustainable Early Years Music - in practice
- Jaimee & Ron Jensen-McDaniel: Outside the boundary: preparing community
musicians for work where community music is not established
- Nell Farrally: Evaluation practices in community music: initial findings from PhD research project – implications for YOUR practice?
- Rachael Perrin, Soundcastle: Wellbeing is for us too!
- Siggy Patchitt & Julia Roderick, Bristol Beacon: Arts and Health – the future of
community music?
During day two we will use Open Space Technology to continue and deepen our
conversations, facilitated by Elspeth Murray.
