🎵🌎 In honor of spring and earth day, come sing to express our love for this blue spinning planet! Through call-and-echo, we'll learn simple songs that celebrate the elements, the wisdom of our more-than-human teachers, and the wonder of being in kinship with this wild web of Life.
We'll make a beautiful mandala from natural materials for the center of our circle ------> bring flowers, twigs, seeds, or stones, ....a little something from your land to help create a collective beauty offering.
(Lyndsey's dear friend & Earthkeeper Wisdom School founder Carolyn Griffeth will be visiting Iowa City -- this is a wonderful opportunity to meet if you're curious about joining A Year in Ceremony!)
🌞 We rented the pavilion so we can gather rain or shine
✅ restrooms are not yet open for the season. BYO water bottle!

♥︎ YOUR HOST:
LYNDSEY SCOTT is an artist, songleader, and ritualist committed to exploring community singing as a technology of belonging. As the co-leader of Earthkeeper Wisdom School, she serves the revitalization of soul-nourishing culture. As a songcatcher, she records singalong earworms that spark collective liberation. Over/Under, her collaboration with incarcerated musician Tony Rhodd, transmits the path of grief-as-activism to dream a world beyond prison. Her love song for the unknown, The Way Knows, is sung by thousands of people around the world from campfires to conference rooms. Lyndsey weaves village and tends her garden in Iowa City, USA.
