Fireside Chant

Inspired by Ritual Arts' Friday Drum and Dance in South Amherst, Inspirit Common will offer a summertime softer-side-of-the-drum-circle.

Using our voices, percussion, and fire we will create a friendly, familial atmosphere. Come enjoy and participate in drumming, fire spinning, hooping, hang out space and snacks with your community.

Evening Schedule

{6:30 - 8:30 pm	Women's Drum Circle with August Eve (Irene Baird)}
9 pm	Open Circle, Firelighting
9 pm - 1 am	Sing & Spin, Dance & Drum, Hoop & Hobnob!
1 am	Close Circle

Like all good things, this evening will be what you make it. Participate by bringing your drum, voice, hoop, dancing shoes or fire gear. If you have a chant to share, bring it.

Snacks and monetary donations warmly appreciated. Bring lawn chairs if you have them. Again this year we received a generous donation of firewood from a community member. If you have kindling for the brazier, that might be helpful!

What participants said...

We really enjoyed our time last night at Fireside Chant. It was nice to get to know the Drum and Dance crowd in a more intimate setting. We'll be back over the summer and plan to partake in the chai/chill come autumn/winter.

Special thanks to everyone who attended last year's events. They were some of the sweetest fires of the summer. We look forward to seeing you around the fire again this year.

This is a rain or starshine event! The yoga room will host the evening in case of bad weather. Set your intention to "dry and warm". :-) During the 2008 season, we maintained a dry bubble above these events despite there being rain in the region on each of those evenings.
