We are happy to provide babysitters on site if children are coming. We would appreciate 3 weeks’ notice if possible. Some local housing is available. Please contact Penny and Lou Kujawinski at the number below.
We invite music lovers to experience shape note singing, a 200-year-old American tradition of a capella music. Our hymnbooks are The Sacred Harp (Denson, 1991) and The Missouri Harmony (revised and reprinted, 2005). No experience necessary – you may sing or simply listen. Loaner books are available.
Free and open to all.
