Of a World that Travels

The Sanctuary, Ascension Church Hulme, M15 5TQ

7:00PM (Door 6:30PM) | Saturday 23 March 2024

Ticket £6, available here

This special programme of music encapsulates everything CoMA Manchester is all about. Curated and created by our own members with contribution from guest artists, Of a World that Travels ensures a unique evening of musical wayfaring: from reinterpreted Monteverdi, through sound & visuals inspired by vintage television, to an inward search of true activism – all whilst we momentarily take a break by the seaside.
Expect the playful, with meditation, laughter, and chat.
