PILLSBURY FREE LIBRARY:

Let's gather together and sing! 

No experience or skill needed. The power of song for healing and connection is tremendous. This will be a safe space to sing for joy, grief, love, fun, hope, for the earth, self-expression, nourishment... Bring songs you want to share and/or learn and I'll bring my own collection of traditional rounds, spirituals, songs from Libana and more.

Current plans are to meet at the library the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month at 7 pm beginning May 27. Contact: Kristin Frasheski, [email protected], 774-268-9763
