2024 Forum: Music Pathways 2: Industry x Tech

March 1 and 2, 2024 | University of Toronto Scarborough

How do musicians thrive in today’s world? How do universities, colleges, and communities empower the next generation for the ever-changing music industry? Technology plays a vital role, both shaping and changing how music is made and enjoyed, and opening up new career paths. We’ll explore current ways musicians create, sustain and grow their careers in Scarborough, the GTA, and beyond. Join us for panels, workshops, performances, food, conversation, and more.

2023 Symposium: Mapping Music Pathways: Access and Opportunities in Community, Post-Secondary, and Public School Music

May 5 and 6, 2023 | University of Toronto Scarborough

This symposium recognizes that barriers to accessing musical opportunities have been well documented and asks: what actions are we taking to remedy them? Our goal is to consider music-making across lifespan and sectors, toward action in removing existing barriers and creating accessible pathways for all who wish to participate. The symposium will consist of themed panels, participatory music-making activities, and interactive “music pathways mapping stations” for all attendees.
