We had an amazing Community Music Activity pre conference at the University of Tampere in Finland. We had over 100 people from around the world, talks, practical workshops, a concert cruise on an island, a Finnish saune evening, a day trip, a conference dinner...it was a beautiful time, thank you so much to the CMA team Christine D'Alexander, Kathleen Turner, Nic Coffman, Hala Jaber and Vyv Abla. And a special thank you to Kaarina Marjanen our generous host.
