Join us for an evening of gentle presence, sound, and spirit at this month’s Saturday Evening Service, curated by Beverly Ketch. This unique series brings together musicians, writers, and listeners for a shared experience of reflection, creativity, and stillness.

This month’s lineup includes:

>Dream Choir – A new Western Mass-based collective of singers, songwriters, and dreamers. Dream Choir weaves together original compositions, improvisation, and rich harmonies rooted in folk polyphony. Their repertoire spans ancient Georgian liturgy, shape-note singing, and New England Shaker spirituals. The ensemble invites you into a sonic dreamspace that hovers between the sacred and the earthly.

>eAnna Claire – Performing the ambient, contemplative works of French composer Erik Satie, whose “musique d’ameublement” (furniture music) invites you to hear, but not listen.

>BeetsBlog – Offering words and reflections that echo nature and spirit.

>Jennifer Abeles – A voice of poetic depth and resonance.

All are welcome—come as you are. This is a come-and-go-as-you-please experience. Whether you’re seeking meditation, inspiration, or simply a quiet space to be, we invite you to share this time with us.
