Share Music & Motion programs

about Share...

Established in 1985 by Dr Michael Swallow, Share Music was set up in response to create opportunities for physically disabled people wishing to participate in high-quality creative activity in music and the performing arts.

During the first 16 years of its life the organisation established itself within Northern Ireland, developing and refining artistic practice and methodology, via a series of residential courses focussing initially on music and widening to encompass dance, movement and theatre (and more recently, film and video). The organisation then spread geographically to England, Wales and the Republic of Ireland and now has a sister organisation in Sweden www.sharemusic.se

Motion & Share...

In keeping with the ethos of the Motion Project, it is important that we help address discrimination issues in all social areas through our music, disability being one of those areas.

A series of workshops and future programs with Share Music seemed to be the perfect partnership as Share Music also strive to break down social barriers with a focus on people with disabilities.
