Virtual Peer Support Group
We meet monthly for a virtual peer support group to share resources and experiences. For upcoming dates, please check the Events page.
Some meetings are for musicians 18+ and some are open to musicians of all ages. Attendees under 18 must be accompanied by an adult parent or guardian. Please check individual event information for age restrictions.
The peer support group is centered on the needs and experiences of people with hand and limb differences affecting their ability to play music. But the group is also open to people who have other hand or arm issues affecting their ability to play music. For more information on the definition of a hand or limb difference, please refer to the FAQ.
All musical instruments, genres, and levels of experience (including none!) are welcome.
A typical peer support group meeting agenda includes:

This is a non-judgemental space

Personal stories are confidential
Introductions
Business items
Upcoming events & opportunities

Something that has been going well for you in your musical life and something that you are working through
