Performance Time: 1:30 to 2:00 pm

The Balwyn Evergreen Centre provides and promotes activities, services and programs that actively assist older people to improve their physical, social and emotional wellbeing.

The MiG members are a group of non-avionic, earthbound musicians playing a variety of instruments with a passion for virtually all genre of music and songs. Formed in 2021, the MiG has performed outside of U3A to promote the benefits and value of the organisation on at least 10 occasions. We hope to continue with this in 2024, kicking off with our first performance at the Balwyn Evergreen Centre.

Should any members of U3A Manningham require the entertainment services of the MiG in helping to promote U3A or simply as a community service, please contact either Peter Simondson or myself through the U3A Office.
