Queer Singing Circle

Join singer-songwriter and teaching artist Eli Conley for a gathering to connect with your breath and raise up your voice in songs of grounding, hope, and resistance. Eli will teach songs that are easy to learn by ear and provide the opportunity for delicious harmonies. No prior singing or musical experience needed. While this space centers queer, trans, and non-binary voices, everyone is welcome!

COVID Safety: Singing is unfortunately a high risk activity for virus transmission, so N95/KN95 masks will be required. Free masks will be available for anyone who needs one. We'll meet inside with an air purifier and HVAC system (heat) running.

Accessibility: Disabled, chronically ill, and neurodivergent folks are very welcome here! The Meeting House is a wheelchair and mobility scooter accessible space with no steps and a parking lot right outside. We will sit in sturdy chairs without arms, and there is a dark, quiet room if you need to take a break. We will be the only people at the Meeting House during this time. There are two single stall ADA accessible all gender restrooms in the building. Please let me know about your specific access needs when you register. You're also welcome to reach out with any questions about accessibility.
