Music education projects contribute in a very positive way towards the future of the orchestra, as well as music education in general and the future of classical music in Kent. We are committed to extending our work with schools and also to providing outreach packages designed to be taken into the business workplace to raise awareness of the orchestra, and the rich experience that classical music can provide. We welcome approaches from schools and businesses who wish to work with us on delivery of these exciting programmes.
For us to continue our educational outreach work our projects need valuable support through sponsorship. For details on how to help please contact us. You might also be interested in becoming involved in Arts and Business (see http://artsandbusiness.org.uk/), a creative network that helps business people support the arts and arts people inspire business.

1. demonstration session
2. a 'hands on' session in which children are able to try out wind and brass instruments (very popular- and noisy!)
3. a short concert performance by KWS.
