Music Nova Scotia Announces Support4Culture Artist Lounge and ECMA Wellness Hub
Created for showcasing artists, the Support4Culture Artist Lounge and ECMA Wellness Hub’s goal is to help keep stress levels low during this high-intensity week. Located in the Eltuek Arts Centre (170 George St), there will also be sessions taking place throughout the weekend for artists to grow their network (in the most casual sense of the word) and connect with their peers!
Lunch is on us:
Thanks to our incredible partners at the Eltuek Arts Centre and Support4Culture, showcasing artists will receive one meal voucher per band member that can be redeemed for one of the following. Meal vouchers will be given to artists at registration with their passes.
Menu:
Breakfast Sandwich (VO, GFO)
Braised Beef Bun (GFO)
BB Bowl (VE, GF)
Soup (VE, GFO), with or without a scone

In the Artist Lounge, our partners at Labatt are also serving up Hop Water fresh from the keg!
Sessions taking place:

Free Counselling
Do you have concerns about your mental health or substance use? Do you find music conferences overwhelming and could use some additional support in addition to the Peer Support Sessions being offered in the Wellness Center? Are you looking for a plan to achieve mental wellness?
Errin Williams, a licensed clinical social work therapist with over 10 years of mental health counseling experience, will talk to you at Nova Scotia Music Week in a confidential space.
