Haliburton's Musical Community Centre
The Haliburton Music Exchange was created to help bridge the gap between the many dusty instruments out there in people's homes and the kids that could be benefitting from a life pursuit of music. We accept donations from anyone with an instrument they don't use. Once we get them, we refurbish them and get them ready for playing. Over time we have evolved into a musical community centre that provides the opportunity for people of all ages to come together in the spirit of music. Our space provides lessons, intimate performances, practice space for bands, recording, and video production.
