“Thanet Youth Music Action Zone is funded by Youth Music and managed by Pie Factory Music” Thanet Youth Music Action Zone (TYMAZ) was initiated by Youth Music through Thanet District Council in April 2001 with an initial budget of £316,000 for a period of 2 years to bring music to deprived areas in Thanet. TYMAZ then became Pie Factory Music, a company limited by guarantee, in November 2002 and a registered charity. Pie Factory Music is a charity set up to provide music and related arts workshops for young people across East Kent. We aim to create a better cultural and social environment and a higher quality of life, through music and related arts primarily, but not exclusively, for young people. Pie Factory Music believes that music is a superb tool for motivation, inclusion and health in its broadest sense and is dedicated to using that tool effectively and flexibly in the East Kent community. We accomplish this by offering various sets of workshops at progressional, intermediate and entry level, along with taster sessions for local events such as play days, launches, etc. Sets of workshops generally work towards an end product such as performances or the production a CD or DVD. With the continued support of our funders and further funding applications, we aim to manage a building to act as our Centre. Available for use as part of our ongoing programme and also for rent by professionals and members of the community will be:
Our regular programme of workshops will continue, running from both the Centre as well as via our out-reach programme throughout East Kent. Our core funding at present is allowing us to concentrate on progressional work rather than hitting large numbers. We see this as very positive as it allows PFM to build on the foundations laid over the last few years. To get involved in current projects go to the contact us page |
