The Fameq Congress 2012 (Fédération des musiciens éducateurs du Québec) happened in Quebec city from the 22nd to the 24th of november. This year, the theme was: Apprenticeship of music and its contribution in the life of the21st century learner. There was a line up of researchers and educators from many countries and they discussed different methods of learning and brought new perspectives to the musicians who gathered at the conferences.
Louise Matte who represented the Académie musicale de St-Marc was at the congress to talk about the project. During lunch time, she presented a Powerpoint of the school and received a warm welcome from the audience composed mainly of music teachers. Twigg Musique one of our collaborators who has been donating and repairing some of our instruments was on site and encouraged us to continue.
