COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS

Mushroom has a dedicated division working hand-in-hand with Government and Community Partners to deliver meaningful and influential messaging programs designed to foster positive change in the community.

Coles First Nations Pathway Program

We proudly partner with Coles to drive the music arm of their First Nations Pathway Program. Designed and facilitated by Mushroom, the project is designed to help young Indigenous aspiring musicians gain valuable music experience and mentorship. Each year, participants are paired up with mentors, producers and industry experts for an intensive four-day masterclass followed by a series of one-on-one mentoring sessions throughout the remainder of the year.

Voice For Change

Voice For Change addresses issues affecting young people today and seeks to inspire disenfranchised youth and youth at risk to follow their dreams and ambitions. Voice For Change is about community, connectivity and inclusion, and harnesses the power of music to positively influence lives through advocates and mentors sharing their journey, challenges and inspirations.

On Track

Is a school holiday music program designed to keep high school students engaged and connected via an educational, collaborative and creative activation in key community locations across Melbourne. On Track provides students a rare opportunity to learn the craft of song writing, recording, video making, performance and more, whilst working with artists and industry specialists.

NP Beats

Aligned to Noble Park Suburban Revitalisation Board’s strategic objectives and vision for the area, NP Beats engaged with young people and local community organisations to deliver songwriting, performance and recording coaching workshops and provide recording and live performances opportunities, supporting local businesses in the revitalisation of Noble Park.

Brand YOU

Addressing significant societal issues impacting the lives of girls and young women today, Brand YOU brought together the powerful voices of female musicians Alice Ivy, Isabella Manfredi, D’Arcy Spiller, Thando, Gordi and Amy Dowdle (Lastlings) along with professional women in the music industry to share positive messages and personal experiences on topics such as cyber-bullying, body image and social media responsibility.
