Music Box Wealden is the groundbreaking local initiative which brings live classical music to your doorstep. We’re on a mission to take music to venues all over the Wealden area – most of which don’t have a piano of their own! Come to our quiz night and help us to raise the rest of the funds we need to buy a piano – we’re more than half way there already!
