Get together with like-minded lovers of folk music and singing! We meet twice a month to sing and play folk songs, most taken from the Rise Up Singing book. Members also bring lyrics to their favorite songs and hand out copies.

If you're familiar with folk music and are not shy about singing, or you play an acoustic instrument, come on down! Those who can sing harmonies or play fiddle, flute or harmonica are particularly welcome at this point.
