Melodic Mindfulness
An interactive songwriting and self-expression workshop with Sally Shaar
Melodic Mindfulness invites participants to slow down, listen inward, and explore what happens when we give ourselves permission to create.
Led by Juno-winning artist, producer, and songwriter Sally Shaar, this interactive workshop uses conversation, reflection, writing, and live music-making to turn thoughts, feelings, and everyday experiences into something tangible. Participants will be guided through a simple creative process, eventually building a song together from the ideas that emerge in the room.
No musical experience is required. You don't need to be a songwriter, play an instrument, or even consider yourself "creative."
At its heart, Melodic Mindfulness is about remembering that creativity belongs to everyone. Sometimes all it takes is slowing down long enough to hear what's already there.
45 minutes | Interactive | No musical experience required
