Sounds within us and around us - NOSPR

Date: 1 Saturday per month, 10:00 PM

Tutor: Sara Knapik-Szweda

Location: Workshop Room

We want NOSPR to be welcoming and open to as many audience members as possible, which is why we've initiated a new series of musical sessions inviting families with special needs. During these 45-minute workshops, colors, textures, and shades of music will take center stage. We'll have fun with music, play instruments, create, listen to ourselves and others.

These workshops are intended for children with neurodiversity, disabilities, as well as sensory, communication, and social challenges. The sessions will be led by a certified music therapist. We invite children aged 3-6 along with their parents to join in for collective creation, listening, play, and moments of calm amidst soothing sounds within a safe space.

Dates: 07.10, 25.11, 09.12, 13.01, 17.02, 23.03, 20.04, 18.05, 15.06

Tickets avaiable one month before the planned event, only at the NOSPR box office - in person or by calling: +48 32 73 25 312 or +48 32 73 25.
