Outdoor Music for Inclusive, Connected Communities

Permanent outdoor musical instruments for parks, sensory gardens and shared community environments.

Four core benefits

Built for Public & Community Spaces

Simple to approach independently and easy to incorporate into parks, sensory gardens and shared community environments.

Inclusive Participation

The instruments are intuitive and rewarding to use without lessons or previous musical experience — children, adults, older people and people with disability can participate at their own pace.

Community Connection

Music provides a natural reason for people to pause, interact and participate together, supporting individual use, family interaction and informal shared experiences.

Intergenerational Recreation

The same activity can be enjoyed by people at different stages of life, making outdoor music suitable for neighbourhood parks, community hubs and spaces shared across generations.

Place Identity and Activation

A musical installation can become a recognisable feature within a park or precinct — another reason to explore the space, remain longer and return.

AN ADDITIONAL LAYER OF PARTICIPATION

An Activity that is Always Available

Wellbeing Instruments create a permanent outdoor activity that the whole community can approach in their own time.

They can be used independently, socially, or as part of recreation and community programs. No electricity, screens or musical experience are required, and the instruments are designed so that every combination of notes sounds harmonious.
