Upcoming Programs and Events

Vibrant Voices A Song Circle for 2SLGBTQIA+ Community and Allies

Join us for a song circle that centres 2SLGBTQIA+ and gender-expansive voices. Everyone is welcome, including friends and allies. We sing for joy and connection, not performance or perfection. You don’t have to read music or consider yourself a singer to participate!

Vibrant Voices is led by Max Gries, a local queer and non-binary piano teacher who believes in the magic of singing together and building community.

This program is in partnership with TransFamily Kingston, Beyond the Binary Kingston and Kingston Pride.
