Monday Roundup #193

Community notes:

• Music Improvisation with Allison Cameron: a new series of free last-Monday-of-the-month workshops is coming up at Array with instalments on September 30th, October 28th, and November 25th. "This workshop is free, inclusive and respectful of everyone. Our approach is to have participants examine the instruments at their disposal, and use the responses to their search for sounds as points of departure for group improvisation in a creative, relaxed and non-judgmental environment." Curious folks should take advantage of this excellent community resource!
