What does a community building process look like when using sound as a tool for justice and trust building? We will begin by forming a sound circle in which we create music together using our voices, bodies and everyday objects. Then we will collectively decide on a theme we want to explore and break into groups to create poetry or spoken word pieces, while learning to trust each other and ourselves. Participants will walk away with an mp3 of our collective sound piece and lessons to take back to their organizing work.
