Come and Create band for autistic young people aged 15+

Our Young People programme focuses on music programmes with autistic people aged 15+, informal concerts for people who prefer a relaxed environment, and a free ticket scheme for people under 26 supported by CAVATINA.

What is Come and Create Band?

• Come and Create Band is a music club at Wigmore Hall for autistic young people aged 15+

What happens at Come and Create?

• Band members co-create new music, write, and sing songs, and explore different sound worlds with music leaders.
• Social time is important in Come and Create Band, so each session has time at the start, middle, and end to catch up with other band members.
• Most workshops finish with a sharing for family/carers and once a year we share a performance on Wigmore Hall’s stage.
• Chance to work with guest artists and explore other art forms such as poetry and art.

Can I take part?

• The band is designed for autistic young people aged 15+ with low support needs.
• We welcome young people with any kind of musical experience, from those who have no musical experience to experienced instrumentalists who want to try something new.
• We provide a range of percussion, keyboards, and drums but you can bring any instruments you may have if you prefer.
