Happy Harvest @Everyone!
Our next outing for CircleSing Sebastopol is coming up, and we are getting ready to try our wings as part of Porchfest! We'll be indoors for our morning workshop at SebArts, and then gather and warm up again there after lunch. Then when we're ready we'll become a strolling flashmob as part of the fun in Ives Park.
As always, we'll be guided by David Worm in this 2-part offering to deepen in the art of making improvised music with the support of community. There will be lots of singing together, interspersed with individualized "workshopping" with David, as the moment calls.
**Open to any experience/comfort level with singing
and/or improvised singing**
We meet every other month, on Second Saturdays.
NOTE: Change of location for September 13 (Sebastopol Center for the Arts, Fireside Room - and then we'll flashmob at Porchfest!)
Upcoming dates, also at Sebastopol Center for the Arts:
November 8, January 10 (indoors in wetter/cooler weather)
All are welcome to attend one or both sessions.
Requested Contribution:
$20-30 either morning or afternoon,
or
$40-$50 for both sessions
(cash or venmo/paypal)
No one turned away for financial reasons!
We'll have a half-hour break partway through - good for snacking, lunch, walking, talking, fresh air, etc.

What is CircleSinging?
A joyous, spontaneous chorus guided in improvised songs. The mostly-wordless, flexible sound format has allowed CircleSinging to become a worldwide art form, practiced in little pockets throughout countries and cultures. The music is accessible, uniting and intuitive, so no prior experience is necessary to participate or to enjoy, as it unfolds very simply.

What is CircleSing Sebastopol?
We are a local, vibrant, regularly-meeting CircleSinging group, growing from the inspired roots of what they hold in Oakland, while bearing our own unique, local fruit. Passionate CircleSingers living within driving distance of Sebastopol are gathering together to create an inclusive container for all those who want to have more opportunities to build their community and open their expression through singing.
