National Poetry Month with Celebration Circle and Erik Sanden
Celebration Circle is an inclusive, multi-faith community with a creative approach to spirituality. We come from a variety of faith traditions and honor our diversity, choosing to focus on our oneness through creative arts, music, meditation, and sacred ritual. Founded in 1992, we are a 501 (c) (3) non-profit offering celebrations and events in order to foster an experiential approach to spiritual understanding. Join us in affirmation that WE ARE ONE! All are welcome, we have no membership rules or requirements. Visit us at celebrationcircle.org.
ON SUNDAY, APRIL 28 we will be joined by Erik Sanden who will share three songs and a 15-20 reading/presentation.
Erik Sanden will share how spirituality and creativity impact his life, sharing three songs and a 15-20 minute presentation. Erik has written hundreds of original songs that NPR calls “jangly art rock for the left side of the brain.” He performs regularly with his bands Buttercup and Demitasse. Sanden has toured extensively, and has shared the stage with Jonathan Richman, Elliott Smith, Rhett Miller (the Old 97s), Ian Moore, The Tragically Hip, The Apples in Stereo, Salim Nourallah, Huey Lewis and the News, Foreigner and Willie Nelson.
He is known for innovative performances that blend visual art, music and humor.
He began writing creative non-fiction during the pandemic and this prose work is finding its way into his music.
