You're invited to Singing Ourselves Home: A Grief Song Circle.
Offered by Unisong in collaboration with the Living Arts Collective, this gentle gathering we will witness each other in grief and invite healing through shared song.

When we grieve together, we remember that we are not alone.
No musical experience is needed, only a willingness to come as you are.
