#PromsInThePlayground 2022
From 4 - 22 July BBE is encouraging community bands to connect with their local schools by offering a performance in their playground. As well as getting young people excited about brass banding, this initiative will help bands forge and strengthen relationships with organisations around them. Want to go beyond just a performance? Why not offer a taster session so school children can learn about the opportunities in your brass band? School's Summer calendars get booked up quickly, so now's the time to book in your performance!
As well as getting young people excited about brass banding, this initiative will help your band to forge and strengthen relationships with organisations around you. It's also a chance to:
· Participate in a national initiative
· Benefit from #PromsInThePlayground promotion from Brass Bands England
· Make new connections for your band
· Gain free advice and support from the BBE Brass Foundations team
· Support the players of the future
And be a part of an enthusiastic community of musicians and educators across the country!
Brass Bands England will be providing support to help you with your summer activity. For Brass Bands England members, recordings of previous webinars led by the Brass Foundations team are available in the Members Resource area, including our Contacting and Building Relationships with Schools resource which is perfect to get you started. BBE also encourages bands to use this opportunity to engage with their local Music Education Hub to make them aware of the opportunities you’re offering to schools in their area and to make them aware of you! You can find contact details of your local Music Education Hubs on the Arts Council website.
If you're a school that wants to find a band in your area, or if you have any questions about Proms in The Playground please contact BBE’s Education and Development Manager Sarah Baumann on sarah@bbe.org.uk, or your local Youth Development Brass Specialist.
