Making Tracks End of Year Celebration

Trinity Centre Making Tracks

Making Tracks is a life changing music making project delivered in partnership with Trinity and leading youth providers Basement Studio and ACE.

The end of year celebration event is an opportunity for young people, parents, careers and friends  to celebrate the achievements and hard work of everyone who has taken part in Making Tracks over the year. The event includes performances from young people and the opportunity to network/ meet others who take part in the Making Tracks project.

We welcomed performances from Making Tracks participants Chloe Thorn (Basement Studio), Miss Tee (Trinity), Sam Neal (Trinity) and Tom Meadley (Trinity) as well as a 30min open mic. 

"It was interesting to see all the other students performances and it shows how far you can get with Making Tracks. I was pleased to see vegan pizza provided and meet lots of friendly people too." Joan, 15

This year we programmed performances from some of the community members who take part in activity at Trinity. Flash-mob style dance interventions came from some of the young women who took part in the Let Us Dance project. The project, in partnership with Arnolfini, saw young women take over the central Bristol art gallery over a few months last year. We also welcomed a performance from members of the WECIL Collective who attend regular group music sessions with tutors at Trinity.

We were also delighted to welcome 15 young people from Hartcliffe who came along with their youth workers to experience more creative opportunities in the city, joining 60+ others for the evenings activities. 

Making Tracks offers young people who are facing challenging circumstances the opportunity to access music making opportunities. Ranging from 121 music making sessions to opportunities to perform a city-wide festivals (Harbourside, St Paul’s Carnival) to Q&A’s with professional artists. Young people are able to receive support and training bespoke to their needs - so they can take the next step into their future.
