SUMMARY:National Music Centre Launches PlayLab: a Free Hands-On Music Playground
DESCRIPTION:Interactive community space to transform visitors from observers into active music-makers on May 6th \nThe National Music Centre (NMC) is unveiling PlayLab\, a new interactive environment designed to turn visitors from observers into active music-makers. Opening May 6 on the main floor of Studio Bell\, the space is free and accessible to all. \nPlayLab is a space to explore\, experiment\, and make music together. This interactive exhibit and welcoming community hub offers something for everyone\, with connections to Grade 2 curriculum. It invites children\, families\, and multigenerational audiences to jump in and discover sound in their own way. \nThe experience unfolds across three connected zones. The first section features Strings\, Percussion\, Wind and Electronicinstruments\, allowing visitors to explore different instrument types and make connections to how vibration\, timbre\, and pitch are created through hands-on interaction. The Learn to Play area offers visitors a chance to pick up a ukulele and try it out for themselves\, with the voice of local musician and educator Jason Valleau guiding their beginner or advanced-level journey. Over at the Sound Stage\, everyone can become conductors of their own musical composition. By placing a hand over a tube\, visitors can activate or layer an instrument into an evolving musical score. As multiple participants engage simultaneously\, the composition grows in complexity. Table-top instruments will provide experiences for our youngest visitors\, encouraging them to rattle and bang and make sound at their own level. \n“PlayLab was created in response to visitor demand for more musical experiences for young families – we listened and delivered\,” said Jesse Moffatt\, Senior Director of Collections and Exhibitions at the National Music Centre. “We’ve always wanted visitors to leave feeling like they can make music no matter their ability. PlayLab is about giving people permission to play\, and discover music in a fun\, accessible\, hands-on way. We’ve also made PlayLab part of our free main floor experience\, where anyone can drop in and get a taste of what National Music Centre is all about at no charge.” \nBeyond its role as an immersive exhibit\, PlayLab will serve as a flexible\, year-round community hub for a wide range of daytime programs and activities\, from workshops and instrument-building sessions to artist talks and informal music play days. Starting in the summer\, PlayLab will spill onto the streets outside at night through projections\, offering an animated expression of sound\, movement\, and creativity that reinforces Studio Bell’s presence as a living\, active space within the city. \nPlayLab is a food and beverage-friendly space on the main floor of Studio Bell. It is free and open daily from 10 am to 5 pm. \nPlayLab is made possible thanks to the generous support of the Alberta Museums Association and the Radomski Foundation. \nAbout National Music Centre | Centre National de Musique\nNational Music Centre (NMC) is a registered charity dedicated to amplifying the love\, sharing\, and understanding of music. More than a museum\, NMC focuses on five key areas: Exhibitions and Collections\, Artist and Professional Development\, Performance and Recording\, Education and Learning\, and Music and Wellness.
