Thu Nov 13, 7-10pm: Somerville Pub Sing at Arts at the Armory Café
Where: The Center for Arts at the Armory, 191 Highland Ave, Somerville, MA
Park at the rear; enter at the front. We'll be in the cafe, where they have soup, sandwiches and desserts as well as wine and a nice variety of bottled beers. Often, a few people show up early to grab dinner beforehand.
COVID PRECAUTIONS: Because singing is a relatively high-risk activity, please be symptom-free and have either up-to-date vaccination or a same-day rapid COVID test. There is, however, no mask requirement.

Sun Nov 16, 2-5pm: Boston Area Chantey&Maritime Sing

Where: Davis Square, Somerville, MA
For location, email aprilcath...@gmail.com or call 617-291-6827.

Tue Nov 18, 6-8pm: Growing Center Outdoor Pub Sing
Somerville Community Growing Center, 22 Vinal Ave, Somerville, MA
If you don't have a Somerville parking permit, you can park on Highland Ave and walk down. Come sing in-person, outdoors, in a beautiful setting! We'll have a propane fire pit and marshmallows to toast. Other snacks are welcome.
COVID PRECAUTIONS: Because singing is a relatively high-risk activity, we ask that people attend only if vaccinated, boosted, and symptom-free. Anyone may lead a song, but no-one is obliged to. Drinking songs and sea chanteys always go over well, but anything with a good, singable chorus will be appreciated.
