MUSIC IN EDEN is the music arm of our longstanding community art event Artists in Eden. We offer free live music every Friday lunchtime in the beautiful Mt Eden Village Centre Church. This is a performance opportunity for musicians as well as a regular music programme for locals and music lovers to enjoy every week, all in the heart of Mt Eden Village with easy access to the local cafés and shops. Performers range from professionals to students and cover a range of musical genres from classical to contemporary. We also feature a new artwork every month by one of our artists and display the work at the performance. Entry is free - koha is welcome.
