Create and Play Project – Social Inclusion through Art

The Create and Play Project is a social inclusion project that proposes the Musical and Artistic Education of children and teenagers through the Didactic Orchestra and Fine Arts. The project was developed in 2005. It reaches children and teenagers of low income families in neighborhoods on the outskirts of Anápolis, and has Music and Fine Arts as tools of social inclusion. To participate in the program students must be between the ages of 9 and 18.

Through the project, students learn how to play a classical orchestra instrument, (the violin, the viola, the cello, the flute, the saxophone, the trumpet, the oboe, the bassoon, the clarinet, the tympanum and others). Students practice together, going through several learning stages: musicalization, instrument learning lessons, joint orchestra practice classes, and the participation in the official Orchestra of the project.

The Create and Play Project provides artistic and professional training to about 400 teenagers in the city of Anápolis, Goianésia and Rialma, and already has four (4) youth orchestras formed. The students’ development and learning is something real, and many talents have been discovered through the Project.
