Creativity, Composition and Conscious Conversation for Liberating Communities!
The “salons” in Paris in the last part of the 18th Century were home places where people came together for music and for the philosophical discussions that formed the groundwork for the “American experiment". With this collaboration we are again creating "circles of harmony" where people can gather with great music, art and catalytic conversations on the animating principles of our Union. Futureman brings visionary music, and evolutionary passion. InterPlayers bring art-full improvisation. TAP members statewide bring practical organizing skills and expertise on a range of issues. We come together from diverse backgrounds to share our dreams, ignite our imaginations and unite our hearts in creating a better state, a better country and a better world.
