[Ponte Alto] Bardic Circle and A&S Gathering - Sunday, May 18, 2008 Pimmit Library, Falls Church, VA

[Made For Willow]

Bardic Circle and A&S Gathering - May 18th Fighter Practice at Pimmitt Library
   
  At the request of the Baron and Baroness of Ponte Alto, I send greetings and invitations to all who would come enjoy an informal afternoon of merriment.
   
  Arts & Science: 
  Hosted by Baroness Denise 
   
  If you are working on illuminations, bead work, hand sewing, leather work or any other A&S project, please come and share your talents and ideas with the group. What are you working on? Come share your interests, talent and techniques with others. 
   
  Bardic Circle Workshop – Talent not required! 
  Hosted by Lady Willow
   
  (everyone is welcome to join the circle, this is NOT a competition, it is a time to share and learn)
   
  ALL bardic arts are welcome, newcomers, just learning, seasoned bards, instruments, drums, hand percussion instruments, guitars, hands for clapping, ears for listening, songs, stories, poems, whatever your artistic gift is or you would like to learn, this is the circle for you. Period, silly, filk, folk, romantic, just for fun, and acceptable bawdy talents acceptable.(appropriate for all audiences).  All participants welcome.
   
  If possible, please bring a few copies of your song, story or poem to share with others. This is a LEARNING, SHARING workshop, the idea is to share what you know with others, listen to new items, learn something new and spend time together. 
   
  Bardic Circle Format will be Pick, Pass or Play.  
   
  Pick, Pass or Play format has been used ever since I can remember singing in a bardic circle. This is how it works.  The host of the circle offers a song and then moves to the next person on the left.  Going around in order, each person has a choice. They can Play, which means perform: sing, dance, tell a story, or play a tune. They can Pass, which means pike out, admit to having no voice, or to shyness, and beg forgiveness. Or they can Pick: choose a song or a singer they'd like to hear, ask for a story on such-and-such a topic, or suggest a style of performance they'd like. 
   
  You are welcome to bring picnic goodies to share as well!
   
  In service to the dream, 
  Lady Willow 
  Baronial Bard of Ponte Alto
