All lyricists, musicians, and songwriters of all levels and styles are welcome to join.

- Speed Songwriting: Unleash Your CreativityLink visible for attendees
(Online event - Zoom link shown when you RSVP Yes)
Come along and write some songs and have some creative fun! Using interesting and quirky songwriting prompts, we'll use short, timed writing sessions to unleash the imagination and dream some brand new music into being. No pressure, just pure creative exploration for the joy of it.
If you're feeling a bit stuck creatively... if you haven't written anything in a while... if you want some time out to just feel what wants to be expressed inside you... or if you're noticing that songwriting isn't that enjoyable anymore... This will be a ton of fun. All welcome! The focus is on your personal creative process and not on feedback but in between writing sessions, there will be space for a few folks to share their works in progress.
