ABOUT

The Programme aims to encourage older adults aged 55 or above to experience the joy of music and promote their well-being. The harmonica classes enhance their self-confidence and appreciation for art and culture. We aim to foster intergenerational (iGen) understanding and connection by creating opportunities for older adults and younger generations to interact and perform collaboratively, thereby bringing the community closer together.
