Community Song Circle (All Ages) – Saturday, December 7, 2024 – Marine Mills Folk School

Lia Falls and Barbara McAfee will lead and teach simple songs, in the aural tradition (no lyric sheets or music to read). All are welcome, whether or not you think of yourself as a singer! We will sing songs that celebrate Nature, and being Human; songs that bring us together in the magic and medicine of singing with others. We will listen deeply and we will experience a joy in singing with others, and together we will make beauty!
