✨ Celebrating our 2026 Music Makers! ✨

Tonight we celebrated the success of last weekend’s incredible Music Makers show! ❤️

We were able to thank our incredible Crew who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make the show happen, celebrated the wonderful support of our Music Maker families, and most importantly, congratulated our amazing stars - the Music Makers on their achievements. ⭐️

We also had the privilege of celebrating Grace Collins, James Phipps and Kristen Bristow on receiving their 10-Year Music Makers trophies and medals. 🏆✨

Every one of our Music Makers also received a trophy and participation certificate for their involvement in this year’s production. ❤️

And once the awards were done… it was time to PARTY! 🎉🕺💃

So proud of every single Music Maker and incredibly grateful to everyone who helps make Music Makers what it is.

What a special night celebrating an even more special group of people. ❤️✨

Last night we celebrated —

✨ 16 years of Creative Performance Evenings.
✨ 17 years of Music Makers.
✨ And a whole lot of memories, friendships and magic along the way.

What started as a high school project has become a community that I am so incredibly proud to call Music Makers.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to last night’s show. Every person who helped, supported, volunteered, encouraged, organised, performed, cheered and showed up played a part in making the night so incredibly special.

And to every single Music Maker — I am so incredibly proud of you. ❤️
