river city sing: songs for Earth
Wednesday, April 8th, 2026 at 6:30 pm
In her book Braiding Sweetgrass, Robin Wall Kimmerer writes, “Knowing that you love the earth changes you, activates you to defend and protect and celebrate. But when you feel that the earth loves you in return, that feeling transforms the relationship from a one-way street into a sacred bond.”
In April, we’ll gather to sing songs for and about Earth, remembering our belonging to the land, water, air, and one another!
river city sing: songs for blooming
Wednesday, March 11th, 2026 at 6:30 pm
In the earliest moments of Spring, the world begins to reawaken. This is the time of the leafbud, the ephemeral wildflower, the chickweed and dandelion. We, too, emerge as we step into longer, warmer days, paying close attention to the newness all around and within. What might we see? What beauty and possibility do we notice? How do we honor the Now?
In March, we’ll sing songs for blooming – to practice tender emergence and celebrate the wonder of nature. We’ll plant seeds of song for the season ahead. Come as you are, take
what you need!
river city sing: songs for self-love
Wednesday, February 11th, 2026 at 6:30 pm
Music gets into our hearts, minds, and bones in a profound way, shaping us in self and in community. Song has the power to help us Remember – we are inherently beloved & worthy of care. This circle, we sing to remind ourselves and one another of this, celebrating the power of compassion extending into the world. It’s big work! You are warmly invited.
In February, we’ll sing songs for self-love. Bring yourself, bring a friend, bring a partner as we fill up our pockets with words of kindness to carry and share.
river city sing: songs for mystery
Wednesday, January 14th, 2026 at 6:30 pm
New Year’s resolutions… have you ever felt like it’s tough to start a new routine in the middle of the winter? Same. In the world around us, the trees are bare, many animals are hibernating, and nature signals that this is the time for rest. In the darkness of the season, much can seem mysterious. So, maybe the invitation is to gather warmth and practice ease with ourselves and others.
In January, we’ll sing songs for Mystery, as we wonder and dream about what we need and how we want to be.

Wednesday, December 10th, 2025
Moving towards winter, the days become shorter as we approach the Longest Night. We are also in the midst of the holidays! Come sing songs of the Solstice to carry you through this season. You’re welcome to bring a favorite treat to share!
In December, we’ll take time to slow down, reground, and celebrate in song & community.
river city sing: songs for the heart(h)
Wednesday, November 16, 2025
As we move further into Autumn, the trees release their last leaves and their energy returns to the roots. The sun sets earlier and nights grow longer. We too, begin to notice the inward shift and the call to rest. It’s a good time to listen to the heart space while gathered around the warming hearth.
In November, we’ll gather to sing heart(h) songs for tending the flames of self love, resting deeply, and receiving nourishment from the practices of care & gratitude.
