Very excited to be hosting a concert on facebook live on Monday December 21st at 5pm ADT. It’s called “Chantons ensemble le 21 décembre, Solstice Singalong for Canadian Parents for French” ! Here is the playlist so you can listen to the songs we will be singing, and here is the lyric sheet! And here is the link to watch the show!
ALSO, I will be offering workshops in Cape Breton Step Dancing, starting January 11th 2021, through The Gaelic College online workshop series! It’s a great form of exercise and a beautiful art!

I offer a variety of workshops in song-writing, dance traditions, and craft! Here is a song written with health-care workers and writers for Arts Health Antigonish! I would be happy to discuss designing a workshop for your festival, school, or organisation!
In public schools I offer programs through ArtSmarts and GénieArts. Exploring traditional cultures through song, dance, and craft, students discover endangered instruments, dances, and song-structures and reflect on the idea of cultural ecology. Students compose a song as a group and make their own musical bones. With my portable recording studio, the children record the song in their classroom and prepare a show or video. These interdisciplinary workshops link social studies, literature, history, theatre, physical education, and music. Here are some examples of songs created by students!
