In this group, queer folx aged 13 and up are invited to collaborate to write song lyrics, sing melodies, play instruments, create electronic beats, and so much more to amplify our voices through music. All musical preferences are welcome, from Mozart to Marvin Gaye to Megadeth. NO MUSIC SKILLS REQUIRED! Groups ask for a suggested $25 donation.
Taught by Emily Stewart (she/they), a queer Board-Certified Music Therapist and Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist. They have advanced training in trauma-informed care, neurologic music therapy, addiction treatment, mental health support, identity development, and disability studies. They understand music as a neurological and psychological science, and as a holistic way of being; they are so excited to collaborate with Our Center to amplify queer voices in our area through music making.
