Climate Cafe: Songs of Connection at Pete's Candy Store

​​​Climate Cafe presents a series of musical performances and bonding climate discussions at the storied Pete's Candy Store in Williamsburg. This month, our featured artist will be Benny Woodard, who has curated this experience and will lead us through a moving musical journey of climate grief and hope. This event is part of a monthly performance series.

​​Together we will explore our fears, anxieties, hopes, and yearnings for a world in ecological crisis. Through a series of guided discussion questions, reflections, and music we will create a space that can safely hold our collective grief and transform it into healing medicine. Come share, listen, heal, and make a new friend with us. All are welcome.

​Benny Woodard sings songs of grief and compassion for a wounded world. His sweet, soulful voice carries us through the mountains and maple groves of Western Massachusetts, where he grew up. It winds through waterfalls and sycamore boughs, careens through cornfields and tobacco barns, floats through foxglove and mountain laurel, all with a poignancy that invites us to pause and reconnect with the earth beneath our feet.
