Something special happens when we come together to sing. It is an ancient remembering of our communities gathering around the fire, joining in one song, the repetition bringing us deeper into presence, transcending time and space. We lift our voices in joy, grief, and praise, and find that when we tune our voices together we tune into something bigger than ourselves. These songs remind us of our unique humanness, as well as our connection to all life- our belonging to the world. These are songs for everyone, regardless of singing experience.
Join us on as we gather to sing songs of Solidarity (n: “unity or agreement of feeling or action, especially among individuals with a common interest; mutual support within a group.”) Lillie Lumina (she/her) and Alinahh Ever (ki/kin) will guide the group in a variety of songs on this theme. You are also more than welcome to bring songs to teach the group! These circles take on a beautiful life of their own when we are all sharing together.
Please bring blankets, cushions chairs, and anything else you need to feel comfortable sitting on the floor. You may also choose to bring a snack to share if you'd like. If the weather is nice we will be outside by the fire, otherwise we will be inside.
