Help Dark Peak Music Foundation in our appeal to raise the money for a high quality grand piano for the Victoria Hall.
The Victoria Hall is one of Glossop’s great community spaces - an iconic building where music, arts and people have come together since it was opened in 1888.
With your support, we’re hoping to take the next big step. The Dark Peak Music Foundation is leading a campaign to raise funds to invest in a first-class concert grand piano for the Hall.
This will open the door to chamber concerts, recitals, jazz events, workshops and a host of musical activities for everyone - from professional musicians and students to community groups and local performers.
A Lasting Asset
The piano will be a shared resource for the whole community, available free of charge to suitable organizations, such as the Glossop Music Festival.
Every gift, large or small, brings us a step closer to creating a lasting legacy for music and culture in Glossop …..something we can all enjoy for years to come.
Sponsors
Anyone donating £200 or more will be given the option to have their name proudly displayed on a brass plaque in the Victoria Hall; a permanent recognition of their generous sponsorship of music in this town.
We are very grateful to all who have contributed and especially the donors who have contributed £200 or more and wish to be included on the plaque:
