In music, tuning up is a place to begin, to ensure that each voice is being heard, reflected, shared, and amplified among a group. Tuning up creates a foundation on which we build harmony and encourage each voice to contribute something unique that ultimately adds beauty and interest to the music.

In this group, moms have the opportunity to "Tune Up" with other moms and engage with music in a supportive and welcoming space. Good chats and light snacks provided. No music experience is necessary.

Here's what folks are saying about Tune Up! 🎻
🎤 "I loved the meeting space, delicious snacks, and friendly conversations. And of course the singing!"
🎤 "What I liked best was trying something outside my comfort zone in a warm and supportive setting.

Join us as we gather again Monday February 23rd at 7pm!
