Chantey Sings
This family-friendly event is led by a chantey-man (or woman) and you -- the audience -- sings the chorus or leads the next song. The call-and-response form of these sea-going working songs makes them easy to learn and fun to sing. View our Music Program page for more Chantey Sing information.
Dates & Times: 2nd Friday of every month, 8:00 pm to 10:00 PM
