Local Practice Groups are generally organized by participants of MMC events, to get together and practice their singing. You can use this calendar page to set up a new singing event near you, or get in touch with MMC to help you figure out the best way to organize other people in the community to form a local practice group.

Albuquerque Mennonite Church in Albuquerque, NM
Friends,
Our April ABQ Music that Makes Community Song Circle will gather on Tuesday, April 1st at Albuquerque Mennonite Church, (1300 Girard Blvd NE).
- Singing 6:30-8pm
- Doors Open at 6pm (Feel free to come early if you'd like to chat! Feel free to bring your dinner along and eat if you're hungry.)--Come practice sharing, teaching, learning, and singing "paperless" songs in the context of a supportive community of fellow singers and song-lovers! Whether you'd like to experience how we can share songs in the oral/aural tradition, build your confidence as a song-leader, or just enjoy the "good medicine" of singing with others in community, we'd love for you to join us. All ages and abilities welcome!It is our practice to ROTATE LOCATIONS AND ROTATE HOSTS for our monthly MMC Song Circles. Our "default" meeting time is the first Tuesday of the month from 6:30-8pm, but that day and time is not "set in stone." We need to flesh out our calendar of locations and hosts for the new year. Please check your calendars and let me know ASAP if you/your community would like to host one or more of our song circles in 2025, and let me know what date(s) and time(s) you'd like to host.Contact organizer Sylvia Miller-Mutia for more information!
