Calling all Sister Singers Network Artistic Directors! 

Join the Artistic Director Roundtable THIS EVENING, for a chance to chat casually and hang out with folks in similar roles with other SSN choruses. Discussion is free-flowing, as we seek to compare notes and help one another. Come prepared to share your experience, listen with empathy, and ask questions. All chorus-related topics are welcome. 

TONIGHT! - First Mondays at 8pm Eastern / 7pm Central / 6pm Mountain / 5pm Pacific – Next session Mon 12/6

Third Fridays at 4:30pm Eastern / 3:30pm Central / 2:30pm Mountain / 1:30pm Pacific – Next session Fri 12/17

This opportunity for ADs to talk with one another is time well spent. Consider joining the discussion any time you’re available. Times and Zoom links can be found on the SSN Calendar.

Beyond Understanding to Connecting


THE LISTENING CIRCLE welcomes all members to a special environment of connecting to what matters most to people in a group. One participant said, "It's a great way to resolve issues through reflecting back and resonating with people you might not see eye to eye with."  As more choruses deepen their awareness and practices of equity, access and belonging, The Listening Circle offers a way to understand and hold differences without needing to console or fix anyone. It's like choral singing without the music. 
 
The Listening Circle meets every 4th Tuesday of the month. The next session is Tuesday, January 24 from 7:30 - 9:00pm Eastern Time 6:30pm Central / 5:30pm Mountain / 4:30pm Pacific / 3:30pm Alaska. No meeting in December.  REGISTER HERE
