Eco-Songwriting Workshop Description

Join songwriter and climate activist Luke Wallace for an empowering songwriting workshop where we explore the parallels between our individual journeys and the global story of climate change and connection. The interconnectedness revealed by climate change offers a beautiful opportunity to see our personal struggles and triumphs in the larger context of the shared human experience. This workshop is appropriate for folks who are both brand new to songwriting or experienced musicians. Participants can expect time to write, reflect and share their feelings, worries and hopes about the present ecological moment, all through the container of songwriting and shared singing.
