In this workshop for early childhood and K12 educators presented by The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, you will learn to reframe the way you define music through mindfully exploring the sound of your environment and grounding yourself in the present moment.

Are you interested in connecting with school leaders to discuss strategies for integrating justice and anti-racist systems into your school?
