2:00 - 3:20pm: Song Circle led by Sylvia Humble. Soulful, spirit-lifting songs on the theme of gratitude and wonder, with layers and harmonies, from the community singing movement. All songs are taught by call and response in the oral tradition; some with 3 or 4 harmony parts, and some with simple structures allowing for harmonies to arise organically in the moment. There is always room for creativity and movement, and chairs are optional. Raise and weave your voice in a collective musical experience that is rich for the ears and the soul.

April creates a playful, safe and expansive experience in her vocal improv. workshops, using structures and games shaped by her training with Rhiannon, David Hatfield, and her own lived experience.  “We'll practice deep listening, soften our reactions, build off of what is happening around us. Begin to believe that creativity is limitless.  How do I open up? How do I let go? Where do we begin? Do I have what it takes? (and I say you do, because you are human) Come experience answers to these questions, and be surprised by the soulful, silly, mysterious, and gorgeous sounds that will happen!”

5:00 - join us for a potluck if you'd like! It will take place in the park outside.
