A sharing of songs from around the world performed by a multi cultural group including refugees, asylum seekers and long term locals. Hear songs in Arabic, Bengali, Irish, Yoruba and from Ukraine.

Directed by professional singer and natural voice facilitator Maeve Leahy, the performance / workshop will include songs from the homelands and songs that the audience can join in with. It will be a beautiful evening of connection, joy and sharing. This is a public event, refreshments will be served after the interactive performance.
