Music and
technology for all ages and abilities:
Based in Leicester,
SlyArts is a professional, non-profit making community
arts organisation.
Our main activity
involves the creation of new opportunities for young people to
make music (particularly Rock & Pop),
film and audio art by extending their existing arts provision.
Workshops and
courses are designed to allow all participants to grow
individually and collectively in confidence and social
understanding, as well as in artistic, technical and
technological ability. It is our policy to provide a
worthwhile process for life-long creative learning, and an
equally worthwhile product, in order to focus and polish all
work.
We also do inset
and consultancy work.
