Pathways to Education This program, based on a model from Toronto’s Regent Park neighbourhood, adds a music component to the successful Pathways to Education after-school program. The KWS will offer several components to the participating high school students: guest passes to select KWS concerts; a youth choir; music workshops; and music instrument lessons – all offered free of charge. This is an interest-based mentoring program offered to high school students in 2 underserved Kitchener neighbourhoods.
Sunnydale Community Centre The Sunnydale Community Association has provided programs to an underserved neighbourhood in Waterloo since 1997. The KWS has sent small music ensembles to perform outdoors during the neighbourhood food distribution.
KWS in our Community
Throughout the year, you may find ensembles from the KWS performing free concerts in retirement communities, nursing care facilities, schools, libraries, city halls, at outdoor venues, soup kitchens, health care facilities, and so on. When they're not rehearsing or performing, most KWS musicians mentor young musicians through private teaching studios, conservatories, music schools and universities. Our musicians enjoy bringing their music to all members of our community.
