In 2021, four longtime friends got together with one mission in mind: to bring musical productions to their hometown of Ladysmith. Since losing their musical outlets in 2020, they knew that being creative and bringing their friends together to play music again was a priority in their lives. In 2022, Emma Alsop, Katarina Skakun-Ward, Sarah Abdulkafi, and Lindsay Skakun-Ward incorporated Ladysmith Musical Arts! Emma, Kat, Sarah, and Lindsay look forward to bringing musical arts to their neighbours year after year.
