Most of the peer-aged combinations stayed at 2 available attendees so no groups were able to launch in January.
As a result, PMT will offer Friday Community Choir for youth and young adults who are interested & available to attend. 2-3 music therapists on staff will co-lead this program. Better timing will be offered over the summer months.
Description: Locals, age 7+ are welcome to join this music group to share songs by singing and spending time together in a creative & inclusive space! Dates: Fridays, 2/23/24-3/15/24 Timing: 10:15-11:15am Cost: $35 per person. No refunds available if absent from any of the 4 events. | | |
