Arts Development are looking for a music artist to deliver a 3-day residential in an Erewash school with KS2 children, to help create a Song for Erewash. The song will be developed jointly in school and performed at Ilkeston’s historical Charter Fair the 18th October 2021.
Schools are to submit a collection of thoughts and words that will help complete the song prior to the residential starting.
Song for Erewash theme – ‘Identity’
The Charter Fair is a big deal to Erewash people, steeped in history. We will ask the selected school to work with children in advance, asking what it means to them!
