Platform 51's Women's Community Choir, final performance
6pm, Friday 22 July, Nottingham Contemporary
Platform 51 would like to invite you to the final performance of our Women's Community Choir Challenge.
This exciting event will be held at Nottingham Contemporary, Weekday Cross, NG1 2GB on Friday 22 July 2011.
Doors open at 6pm for drinks, with the performance commencing at 6.30 pm. The running time will be approximately 30 minutes.
Platform 51's Women's Community Choir Challenge is a new initiative based on our research and experience that singing can benefit mental health problems. Forming a choir has been a positive and exciting way to support our girls and women.
Many women don’t access activities that help them meet others, have fun and learn new skills. The choir project has provided these things and reduced the isolation that many girls and women face. The choir has had a positive effect on the women and they no longer feel intimidated or held back.
The group had very little singing experience when they started but over the last 10 weeks they have created a performance that is both inspiring and uplifting.
If you would like to attend the performance on 22 July please download and print out this invitation.
