Music-based play space reaches online fundraising goal
Notasium, the music-based play space and school planned, has reached its online fundraising goal of $40,000. The innovative destination could open as soon as 90 days along the 15/501 corridor in the Durham and Chapel Hill area.
Posted — UpdatedClarke said the Kickstarter campaign has helped to build excitement and a customer base for the project. He also is working with investors to raise another $100,000 that's needed for the project.
Clarke envisions a place where babies and toddlers can come for free play to explore a large indoor playground. As they get older, they can transition to music classes and individual lessons.
According to the Kickstarter campaign, the play space could include a "climbing structure in the shape of a giant guitar where kids pull themselves up by rope 'strings' and play notes on the fretboard as they climb; inflatable, enclosed drum structures that play sounds as the kids bounce on them; a sound-proofed karaoke/mixing booth; an overhead projection system which will turn an enclosed section of the floor space into a giant interactive piano, xylophone or musical game; big Lite Brite-style musical notes kids can play on a staff; among others."
There also will be other spaces for classes, lessons, birthday parties and summer camps.
Clarke has been busy working to secure a specific spot for Notasium and he's been talking with playground designers.
