Is your recycling bin currently overflowing? Is your house too quiet? Would you like to have an orchestra in your living room? If you answered YES, then here is your chance to merge music with arts and crafts and help us to create an orchestra from recyclable objects.

NOW... Make an Instrument

WHAT IS THIS PROJECT?

Every week, we will post instructions on our website and on our social media to help you create a musical instrument from items around your home… it is going to be some fun for everyone!
成人快手 NOW musicians will be sharing their own creations across our social media and we would love to see what you made too – all ages are welcome to take part.
Over the coming weeks, we will be sharing your creations across our social media and we hope to develop the project further by working alongside an artist and even creating musical instruments from vegetables - watch this space!
