Join us on Sunday afternoon, March 23rd from 2-5pm for Singing for Catharsis! In pagan Anglo-Saxon traditions, a deity associated with the spring is Eostre, a woman whose name tells us she is descended from the dawn goddesses found from western Europe to the Baltics, the Mediterranean and India. At this event, we'll chant songs to the dawn goddess and the awakening land, as well as enjoy ritual to usher in the spring. You are asked to register and pay ahead of time.

About Singing for Catharsis:
In this space, Saro Lynch-Thomason teaches easy-to-learn songs that we sing for extended periods of time to help us move into a place of catharsis/relaxation/oxytocin release/altered state that ritual chant has provided for countless people for thousands of years. After each song we take time to decompress and talk about our experiences. We will only explore a few songs, some for as long as an hour. Folks are welcome to take breaks during the songs if they need to.
