Stop by. Step in and "build the city".

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHT - JOE REILLY
CONCERT SATURDAY EVENING
8-10pm

Joe Reilly finds great joy in sharing the music of his heart

with diverse audiences around the world, using songs and rhythms to bring people together across lines of race, age, class, and gender to create inclusive community.

The energy of Joe's music is both celebratory and healing, and teaches the importance of respecting the earth and all beings as sacred relatives. Joe has enjoyed participating in Bioneers in Detroit and Traverse City over the past 7 years. He lives wherever he is, and has an apartment in Ann Arbor, next to the Black Pond Woods. www.joereilly.org

Joe is our Artist in Residence - with us all weekend!
