Sunrise Singing Circle | Arnold Arboretum

About the Circle: This monthly sunrise singing circle is held outdoors - we greet the day in connection with the elements, the birds, community and aliveness. We will stretch, breathe, listen and vocalize to warm up our whole system. From there we will lead a few simple but powerful songs and vocal improv exercises to welcome in the new day. This practice is open to all. Consider bringing along your kids!

Cost: We ask for an optional, $5-20 donation to help cover rental fees and other administrative costs for our circles. Since this circle is hosted freely outside, we will be donating all proceeds to the Native Land Conservancy. You can donate through eventbrite, pay cash upon arrival, or donate directly.

Documentation: We may take a few candid photos to promote future outdoor singing circles. If you don't wish to be captured please let us know!

re COVID: Please monitor your symptoms and do not come if you are sick! Masks are optional.

What to Bring: Check the weather and dress appropriately (scarves, hats, gloves, etc.) There will be morning dew on the grass, so wear shoes that can get wet, plus pants or a blanket that can get wet if you will want to sit. And a water bottle!

Directions: Our meeting spot is on a beautiful hill overlooking the Hemlock Hill Road path, facing east. We recommend parking by the corner of Bussey St and Walter St, entering the Walter Street Gate, and walking along the path in the image below (about a 5 minute walk). I f you enter from the Forest Hills gate, it is about a 20 minute walk by following the Beech Path to Hemlock Hill Road (but easier to get lost if you aren't familiar with the area).
