Special guest Moira Smiley, a GRAMMY®-nominated singer, composer, and educator, will lead us through an afternoon of music-making that’s as fun as it is freeing.Think of this event as a musical gathering place where everyone is welcome and no preparation is required. Moira will guide you through simple vocal warmups that feel like games, folk songs that’ll get stuck in your head (in the best way), and gorgeous harmonies that you’ll help create. With a string quartet of New Mexico musicians adding their magic to the mix, you’ll be amazed at the sound we can all create.
All ages, all levels, all voices are welcome. That includes yours! Minors must be accompanied by a parent/guardian. Seating will be available for all, with occasional invitations to stand as songs come together.
