In this episode of The MACcast, we talk to Nicole Justice, Music Leader at MAC Makes Music, about the importance of music for young people and how to stay creative during lockdown. Sam Frankie Fox tells us all about the live stream performances of BAM – Babies’

Academy of Music and we take a look at some of the many ways you can enjoy MAC’s work from your own home, including taking a 3D virtual exhibition tour, listening to music and watching classic and new movies for free.

New episodes of The MACcast are published every two weeks. The MACcast is presented by Blake Woodham.
