Blowcomotion
Share
Blowcomotion is a community brass band learning workshop. We welcome folks of all musical abilities. We rehearse every Tuesday night from 7-9pm at Shipe Park.
Dust off that old tuba from high school, learn a new instrument, or pick up music for the first time! If you're interested in joining the band, head to our website and click "Join" at the top of the page. No need to own an instrument or know how to play--we can provide you with an instrument of your choice and we have professional teachers who will help you learn. All are welcome to come watch or play along with us.
