No experience necessary. All voices welcome.
As we move into the coldest, darkest months of the year, we gather to tend what warms us from the inside out β shared voices, simple songs, and connection. Whether you join Community Song Circle once or every month, youβll leave with your spark glowing a little brighter.
Each Circle, song leader Hella Wartman will guide participants through songs taught in the oral tradition - no lyrics or sheet music required. Weβll sing a mix of rounds, layer songs, zipper songs, and call-and-response tunes being shared across global song circles today.
What to Expect:
-Songs taught by earβno reading necessary
-A safe, inclusive space where every voice matters
-Simple, soulful songs that invite harmony and participation
-Opportunities to connect with others through music
