Happy Hour Singalong June 5 2020

June 5, 2020 @ 5:30 pm - 6:15 pm

Singalong Happy Hour

All Are Welcome!

with Tina Allgeier and April Boyden

Grab a beverage and join us for a fun hour of virtual singing and laughing to help us break up the monotony of being self-quarantined.  Music has long been used to help relieve grief and help us feel better.  Studies show that music and singing promotes an opportunity for reflection while also creating a sense of community, culture, and spirituality which are essential to dealing with grief.  This singalong is not intended to be music therapy, but rather a fun night to singalong with others as we share our common experiences of loss.

NO SINGING EXPERIENCE NEEDED AND YOU CAN MUTE YOUR MIC IF YOFU LIKE!
