You can choose for your 3 hours to be in the form of a teaching, help prepare meals, clean up after meals, set up, take down, or children's activities. We'll have a sign up board when you check in.
Everybody SingsIf you wish.
No formal training or experience necessary. Singing is a human birthright to expression, and this gathering is open to all ranges and confidences of voice. The focus is on sharing simple songs and being together, using music and craft to build culture and connection.
