A choir is forming in Honesdale, and all are welcome to participate. No experience required. The choir is being organized in response and in solidarity with a national movement of citizen singers called SingingResistance. Led by theatre artist, Tannis Kowalchuk, the choir will develop a repertoire of songs (learned by ear) that gives voice to our concerns about rising authoritarianism and threats to democracy. The intention is to develop a group of singers that can join public gatherings such as No Kings Day and other events where music can be used as a tool for positive action, community strength and connection.
Practice takes place every Monday night at 6 PM at the Dems Headquarters in Honesdale, starting February 16. Let’s join together to breathe joy and song into the resistance, and to uplift and center our message of equality.
