When We Gather
Voices lifted in song can energize, rejuvenate and renew our passion for life and living. This program is designed to be fun, entertaining and encouraging. All the songs are participatory, giving students, staff, parents and volunteers the opportunity to join in the singing. This program is great for PTO/PTA gatherings or as a special program for students and staff.
Different versions of this program are available for the following grade levels: K-2nd, 3rd-5th.

Thank you very much for working with our students this year. As a talented and very approachable adult, you made a positive and lasting impression. You adapted lessons quickly to match learning and emotional abilities. Lessons were fun and full of lighthearted, no pressure, laughter and direction. The kids have left this year with a sense of “I CAN.”
D. Miner, Sowers Alternative High School, Wichita
We are repeat customers and hope to always be. Songs are catchy and entertaining. I connect with the artist and want to hang out on the porch and jam all summer long. The program provides a mix of entertainment and learning. The hope is that more information is retained because it is presented in such a terrific way. Again the artist is amazing at spontaneously changing during the performance and interacting closely with a small group audience.
