Resonate is a music-based community engagement initiative designed to amplify the voices and talents of marginalised groups in Newport, particularly Gypsy, Roma asylum-seeking communities. Through inclusive workshops, cultural exchanges, and collaborative performances, Resonate seeks to promote integration, expression, and empowerment using music as a common language. A key feature of the project is a culture-sharing event, bringing together communities to celebrate and share our Citys heritage.
Get Gigging! aims to reach young, aspiring musicians from some of Newport’s most deprived areas and equip them with the practical knowledge, confidence and inspiration to do exactly that: get gigging. Through a series of mentor sessions with industry professionals and a showcase performance opportunity at Newport's Corn Exchange music venue, young people will gain invaluable skills not just for music careers but for life.
Operasonic is igniting the spark of self-expression and community cohesions through accessing and participating in music. We believe that music is more than just notes on a page it's a powerful tool for communication and personal growth. From our innovative program for babies to our support for young musicians aspiring to build careers, we're dedicated to nurturing talent and encouraging participation at every stage of life. We are on a mission to make music accessible and transformative!
