Take a journey around the world through music, instruments, language, and dance!
It’s not so easy to hop on a plane and discover new places, so bring your family and friends spend an afternoon with the World Folk band, Ley Line. The all-female group will perform songs from around the world and host workshops on harmony, different rhythms, folklore dances, and foreign languages. Come explore your voice, movement, and the many influences present in our culture and music. Surprise local artists in the world music community are to be announced!
This is a FREE event!
However, for adults, there is a sliding scale donation.
