Farewell to Nova Scotia:
Helen Creighton, Her Songs & Her Story
The Creighton Collection is a treasure trove of Canadian songs, stories, folk magic, and more — but perhaps the most fascinating thing about it is the collector herself. Come delve into who Dr. Creighton was as a collector and a human, and learn one of the songs she left us
knee-to-knee along the way.

Traditional Ballads for the Pub Singer
Ballads often conjure the picture of someone singing a long, slow, tragic, solo song about the perils of adventure and the pain of loss.  While many ballads fit that bill, all you really need is a song that tells a story with a beginning, middle, and end. Come hear (and sing!) some traditional ballads that fit the definition while defying expectations — and learn a bit of the history behind this ancient singing tradition while we’re at it.

Music and Meter: Poetry and Song
Celebrate National Poetry Month or simply spend some time soaking in the words of well-known wordsmiths set to music. W.B. Yeats, Shakespeare, Kipling, E.L. Blanchard, and more come together in this program to wrap us in beauty, powerful reminders, and a laugh or two.

All of the above programs are available online AND in-person!
