Sing for the Planet: workshop with Sandra Kerr & Jon Doran

Sunday 29 June 10.30am - 4.30pm

Singing workshop for singers of all levels.

Sandra Kerr says: "One of my passions as a musician, singer and writer, has always been to encourage people’s skills, whether they are young, old, experienced or absolute beginners.

It’s a way of ‘going on’ oneself…"

Participants will have the opportunity to show off what they have learned by singing in the evening Sing for the Planet  Concert!
