St George’s Big Birthday Bash takes on Sat 16 – Sun 17 Sep. This will be a fantastic weekend event with entertainment for all the family. From concerts and singing sessions to trails, crafts, gardening and games, all while soaking in the beautiful building and gardens at St George’s Bristol and learning more about its wonderful heritage!
Then there’s the MiniBeats series, providing an interactive introduction to all the families of instruments, and to some of the wonderful music written and arranged for them. The next session will be on Sun 22 Oct, with two sessions at 10.30am and 12.30pm, introducing children to the wonderful world of strings!
Then there’s Wild World coming up on Wed 25 Oct which will be a morning of magical, mythical storytelling with musical accompaniment and plenty of interaction, hosted by the brilliant Michael Loader and multi-instrumentalist Fiona Barrow.
