Free Amps For St Peter Port Buskers

Guille-Allés's ‘library of things’ is expanding to benefit local musicians.

Two battery-powered setups will be available for 5 days at a time from the Guille-Allés library, thanks to a new partnership with Guernsey Arts.

Grace Stevens from the organisation says it will benefit everyone:

"It will be good for the musicians and also the general public - both locals and visitors.

It's really nice to see the arts in the community and see the talent that the island has to offer.

We're just trying to make it as accessible as possible really."

After musicians get their PA permit, they can go to the Guille-Allés library and present their membership card to get the amps.

Adam Bayfield from the library says he is pleased with the addition to their collection:

“The Library is committed to promoting creativity and the arts, and we’re proud to be partnering with Guernsey Arts on this initiative to make busking more accessible for local performers.

The amps form part of our ‘library of things’ collection, along with litter pickers, bat detectors, and other physical objects available for loan."
