This one-day event, which includes presentations, hands-on workshops, and skill-sharing, aims to bring together a community of scholars, band leaders, artists, activists, and others to explore and engage in innovative and practical applications of brass band and other forms of street music.

The “Second Wave of Sustainability” shifts the narrative from scarcity to abundance, from fear to hope, from what we give up to what we gain.
