Rock With The Doc

This school holiday program was created and presented by Barkly Regional Arts and funded by Territory Families. 'Rock with the Doc' was a 3 week music program where young people worked with 3 local musicians and built their own guitars. The young people also got to work with world renowned stencil artist HAHA (Regan Tamanui) to create stencils and spray paint their very own design onto the guitars.
Once the guitars were built they began some basic music lessons to learn how to play their guitar. They learnt some basic chords which they then strung together and performed for the community at the end of the program

This program continues in the April school holidays. The focus of the week will be on creating and practicing a song they can perform at the big youth event of the years 'Barkly Beats' (April 21st).
