SONGS OF DIVERSITY II
A Songwriting Festival Celebrating Every Voice
Join us for Songs of Diversity II, a songwriting festival that celebrates diverse voices and empowers persons with disabilities to turn their stories, hopes and experiences into songs.
Discover how ordinary people found the courage to share their stories and, through songwriting, transformed them into meaningful songs that inspire others.
Through inspiring conversations with our panel, hands-on songwriting workshops and 2 days of showcases of songs presented by persons with disabilities, the festival invites everyone — with or without musical experience — to discover the power of creativity and self-expression.
Come to listen, learn, create and connect as we break barriers, celebrate different abilities and build friendships through music.
Every story has a voice. Every voice can become a song.
