Song Sangtuary

We sing to connect. We sing to feel alive. We sing to heal our aching hearts and strengthen our souls. 

Song Sangtuary is a space for embracing our wholeness through embodied soundmaking and community singing. This ritual song gathering, facilitated by Bex Lipps, will guide attendees through a journey of practices and songs for personal and collective healing and liberation.

Singing together is an ancestral practice that helps us build community, grieve our losses, celebrate our joys, and transform despair into hope. We also know that singing has profound mental health benefits! So let's come be held in the sanctuary of song as we learn how to navigate these wild times of chaos, mystery, and possibility together. 

All voices are welcome in this space, and no prior singing experience is necessary. No one turned away for lack of funds. 

10% of proceeds will be donated to the Lavender Rights Project, a nonprofit providing life-saving legal and direct services that are by-and-for Black and gender diverse communities throughout WA and the United States.
