Music For Change Music For Change is a charitable arts organisation that promotes understanding and respect for cultural diversity through music and the performing arts. We work with an extremely talented and experienced core group of artists and a large majority of our work takes place in primary, secondary and SEN schools. The key aim is to break down barriers and promote an awareness, understanding and respect between people and cultures through music and performance, and celebrate cultural diversity. Our residencies, projects and workshops are designed to be fun and educational whilst being used as team-building exercises or to boost morale. Our Artists are experienced, talented, committed educators and skilled facilitators as well as high quality performers.
