Mobile Mix & Mash - TheMusicWorks
Taking inclusive music-making across Gloucestershire

We’re working with Barnwood Trust to offer Short Breaks music-making activities in Libraries around Gloucestershire!

Mobile Mix & Mash is an opportunity for young people of all abilities to:

  • Experience vibro-acoustic music
  • Learn to DJ
  • Make their own beats & songs
  • Sing, beatbox & record their own voice

This is a respite activity for family and/or carers. This is also an opportunity for you to share your experiences and views in a safe environment.
