Homeless Gamelan?

open suitcaseThe Spirit of Hope Gamelan is looking for a home!

The Spirit of Hope Gamelan is located temporarily in Allander House, Gartnavel Royal Hospital where we continue to rehearse and carry out our educational and outreach projects. If you can help find a new home for the gamelan, please contact us immediately. These wonderful instruments mean so much to those who work with them. They are used in performance, in schools and by people with additional support needs. It would be a great shame to have to place them in storage, just sitting somewhere unused.
