Grants to Arts has supported Create and Express, a Social Action initiative, to run music workshops engaging members of the local culturally diverse communities and other stakeholders to empower them to have an open discussion about COVID19 mental health related issues.
These workshops will provide inspiration for the participating musicians to create their own project compositions, leading onto them composing, recording and mixing in their own native languages, highlighting the issues discussed.
The songs will then be recorded, mixed and mastered by hired producers and engineers at the Create and Express recording studio and the music compilation will be launched with live performances at Welcome House Refugees Centre, providing the opportunity to raise awareness and at the same time, showcase their work and develop their artistic profile. Their work will also be shared through their online platforms. As a development from previous work Create and Express will be working with new artists from Somalia and a band from the Hull Sudanese community.
