Documentary filmmaker Polly Wells will show her film We Began to Sing (23 min) which tells the story of the immensely popular songbook Rise Up Singing. Featuring musicians Annie Patterson, Peter Blood and Pete Seeger, the film promotes the power of song in social movements and the joy of communal singing.
Following the film will be a Q&A with Polly, then enthusiastic singing led by Paul Selbst and Gerry Whelan.
Come hear the origin of an influential songbook and join the fun -- whether you sing or listen. Stay for all or some.
