Youth Programs
The Awesome Music Hour
The Awesome Music Hour (AMH) is a youth-centred program that offers workshops to nurture self-expression, boost confidence, foster resilience and create a stronger sense of community through making or engaging with music. The learning outcomes are achieved through engagement with experts, facilitated peer-to-peer discussions and youth-centred activities, all rooted in the transformative power of music.
“The Awesome Music Hour allowed youth who may be shyer and more reserved to feel a sense of belonging and connectedness. The AMP team helped bridge the gap for our young people. ”
AMP Campfire Jam
Remember the magic of the summer campfire experience? This exciting and unique program has been designed to be delivered as the campfire program for youth summer camps. The AMP Campfire Jam helps youth unplug from their busy day of camp activities and embark on a musical journey that nurtures their mind, heart and soul. This one to three-night experience program helps youth discover the power of music for mental, physical and emotional well-being.
Seniors Programs
AMP4Life
Delivered in collaboration with music therapists, AMP4LIFE is a program designed to address the challenges facing long-term care facilities. The program uses music therapy, storytelling and songs to engage residents and focuses on improving wellness and reducing stress and anxiety. It helps create community and enhance interpersonal skills and connections with others.
“AMP4LIFE has allowed the Residents the opportunity to express themselves. In a place like Long Term Care, where people have given up most of their independence and lost so much of their personhood, the program has brought so much of this back to the Residents. The Residents can connect with the music therapist, recall memories, and speak about instances in their lives with meaning. ”
