In January 2015, two of Canberra’s longest-established key arts organisations, Music for Everyone and Canberra Youth Music, merged to form Music for Canberra.

A long musical history…

Bringing together 30 and 50 years of ACT musical history respectively, the merged organisation offers Canberra inclusive and inspiring ensemble & orchestral tuition, musical experiences and workshops, and performance opportunities. As a non-profit organisation with a community focus, Music for Canberra encourages people of any age, any ability, and any background to experience the benefits music can offer.

Programs to suit everyone…

Music for Canberra offers a variety of different programs for people of all abilities. We have choirs for children as well as an orchestra program that includes the Canberra Youth Orchestra. We also offer mixed ability classes to those living with a disability.

Music for Canberra curates accessible and creative ways to make music at our home – the Ainslie Arts centre.
