Hello Everyone! ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

We are excitedly preparing for our 11th annual Spring concert - just a few more Bulgarian words to commit to memory and we'll be ready for you!

We'll be offering songs from around the globe that celebrate the aliveness of Spring and tune us in to the spirit of Life that moves through us all. As always, we will take some time to honor or Mothers and celebrate our daughters on this Mother's Day weekend. 

Kevin DiNoto will be supporting us with his incredible percussion skills, and the Women's Spirit Song circle will be joining us for a couple of songs. 

Our special guest artist for this season is Amanda West - music for thoughtful hearts. I'm always delighted by her witty, thoughtful lyrics and her sweet songbird voice.  

A portion of our proceeds will benefit our local Artemis Project - offering empowerment programs for teenage girls.

All the details and a link for tix are below.


See you soon! 
Heather
