Pocket Songs has been one of the most uplifting and connecting activities I have begun since the world turned upside down over COVID-19. -- KRS, New Hampshire

While many people chose to participate on a weekly (or twice-weekly!) basis, this group also welcomed drop-in attendance for those whose schedules didn’t allow for regular commitment.

In Zoom sessions participants were off-mic, able to sing along freely with Patricia, who curated a set of fresh songs with a slant toward presence & well-being. Using looping, call-and-response, and gentle humor, she built a communal singing experience. Some singers gathered up to 15 minutes before the start for visiting and a bonus song they selected (sometimes stumping Patricia!)

A sample holiday pocket song with a smidgen of teaching...

All songs were taught by ear, and resources to help you sing them through the week were part of the package.

Each week you were registered for, you were welcome to come to either or both sessions. You received specific Zoom login instructions and a link to a document with song resources.

 Cost
14 weeks = $175 ($12.50/wk)
2-7 week punch card = $15/wk
​Single drop-in = $15/wk

We support each other as a community: there are options to both give or receive (paying as little as $5/wk), considering your own financial circumstances.
