Crewe Youth Music Project

Crewe Town Council creates FREE Youth Music Project “Generation Music” to nurture local young talent

đź“… Wednesday 17th July
đź“Ś Crewe Market Hall
⏰ 12 noon until 9pm (family programme between 3.30pm and 6pm)

Local young performers, music lovers and families got involved in “Generation Music”, a mini youth festival which took place in Crewe town centre on Wednesday 17th July.

Created by Crewe Town Council, facilitated by arts charity RicNic, and produced by a team of local 16-24 year olds, this Youth Music Project showcased local talent and gave visitors the chance to learn new dance styles, have a go at samba drumming and take to the stage in open mic events!

Visitors to the event at Crewe Market Hall enjoyed live music performances from local young soloists and bands, free family workshops for under 5s, Lindy Hop dance sessions and drumming workshops, as well as craft activities, circus skills workshops and free face painting. People of all ages came together to support the performers and activities!

🍔 Food traders at Crewe Market Hall offered a range of special dining deals for audiences attending the event, with children able to dine for as little as £1 at some stalls! 🍕

Generation Music has been developed from ideas generated in visits to local schools and colleges, exploring what our young people in Crewe want to see in their local events programme. They wanted to produce an event that was inclusive and accessible to anyone, where anyone could have their moment in the spotlight and where families could come together to enjoy music.

Crewe Town Council is committed to delivering projects that help to raise the aspirations of young people in Crewe, allowing them to achieve their potential and develop interests in the arts and culture. This Youth Music Project has been designed to facilitate participation in a high-quality, creative activity and offer a valuable learning experience that supports local young talent.
