Throughout 2024, the Center for Belonging Folk School will host and facilitate a series of community singing leadership and listening experiences! These experiences will provide valuable insights, resources, and practical techniques to integrate the power of song into folk schools.
We hope that this project seeds an expansion of community singing through folk schools.
- Interweaving song into the daily rhythms of folk schools;
- Creating belonging and well being through song;
- Supporting communities to better cooperate across differences; and
- Ensuring song leaders and singing have a place in folk schools.
