movement to safeguard the environment, protect human rights, and defend
democracy-a movement for which this charismatic woman became an iconic
inspiration.

First Church in Jamaica Plain (Unitarian Universalist)

Singing together helps to bring us into community, learn history, and share
a folk-language that can pass through the ages. They give us a way to build
and express community, calm the heart, and share emotions that defy ordinary
conversation. This special Earth Day program will focus on songs about our
big blue planet!

Led by local songfest master, Ken Ward, and welcoming special guests Dean
Stevens and Ginger Eliot.

This event is free and family-friendly!

Bring a dish to share, or $5 to contribute towards food
