Type of event: Performance Start time: 6:30pm End time: 8:00pm Venue: Havenwood Heritage Heights "Tad's Place" Description: 
We’ve been invited to offer a free classroom-style introduction into the world of Barbershop harmony—an opportunity to share what makes our craft so special with a curious and engaged audience.
This isn’t a performance in the traditional sense. It’s a guided conversation, a musical demonstration, and a chance to connect. We’ll walk participants through the basics of Barbershop singing: its history, its structure, and the emotional impact of ringing chords. We’ll sing a few examples, explain what makes Barbershop unique, and invite questions along the way.
Our goal is to make the experience welcoming, informative, and inspiring. No prior musical experience is expected from attendees—just a love of music and a willingness to learn.
