We're thrilled to announce these free music tuition workshops, funded by Make Music Scotland, starting later this July.
Workshops are free, but you need to register and places are limited. We ask that you only register if you are serious about attending and can make the commitment to attend weekly.

From this autumn Falkirk Libraries will be lending musical instruments!
We’re excited to be working with We Make Music Scotland and the Falkirk Instrumental Music Initiative to make music more accessible for everyone.
We’ve received funding from We Make Music Scotland to purchase some guitars, ukuleles and drum pads, but we’d love to be able to expand what we can offer.
If you have an instrument that is in good condition, that you’d love to see well used by adults and children across the Falkirk area, please let us know.
Drop an email to libraryevents@falkirk.gov.uk to let us know what you would like to donate, and we’ll let you know how to get it to us.
COMING SOON: Summer music classes! Watch this space for info.
