Improv Choir Workshop

Sunday 24th 3-5.30pm

An open workshop for singers, artists and any adult or young adult who would like to give it a go.

The Original Room upstairs will become an impromptu performance space. We will cover the walls and tables with paper and create a communal work of art and soundscape – you can dip in and out – go and look at the galleries, eat cake and drink tea and come back in and see what has changed.

£8. Led by Jilly Jarman
