This event has past. For upcoming events please click here.

September 28
through November 2

The Basics of Singing II Workshop is designed for experienced as well as new singers. Those people who have always wanted to get better at their singing but don't even know where to begin as well as those that may have taken The Basics of Singing class earlier this year or may have a degree of experience.

Working with an accompanist, participants will concentrate on breathing, diction, posture alignment, and song choices to start the singing process from soup to nuts, and after this workshop will feel more confident in their abilities and more eager to jump into some new singing adventures!

Clown Curious Day for Adults
Category: Education April 27 at 1:00pm

Clown theater is a hilarious and deeply vulnerable art form. We take in the ups and downs of life and laugh them out. It's also personally transformative because our clown characters are based on ourselves, not on characters we invent. Come play, and learn some of the rules of humor and body language that you can then apply to further connection in any setting, personal or professional. First, we share a light body warm-up, then play simple group games that help us feel creative and related. We each don our red nose (provided) in a fun ritual. From there, we engage each other in classic physical comedy exercises, discovering more about our clown characters along the way. No performance experience is needed just an open spirit!
