Two Maine music therapists along with a Maine-based theatre producer and director will present the results of their pandemic-related workshops. The talks are part of the Jack Pine Project, a community arts project organized by the Maine Folklife Center, Maine Studies Program and Fred Hutchinson Center at the University of Maine.
The first talk, presented by Zoom on Friday, April 16th at 7:00 pm, will feature music therapists Carla Tanguay and Kate Beever, who conducted separate workshops that taught non-musicians how to express their thoughts and feelings about the Covid pandemic through songs. Both will present the songs created during their workshops and talk about the process involved, as well as what their students said about the project.
