Songwriter, Bob Franke. |

Songwriting from the Center:
a workshop with world renowned singer-songwriter Bob Franke
Saturday & Sunday, June 23, 24
1:30 pm - 4:30 pm
Join us in the natural environment of Fuller Craft Museum to be inspired by art, nature, and the talented Mr. Bob Franke.
http://www.bobfranke.com/
Song is a powerful and often underutilized medium of transformation. Bob Franke's songwriting workshops have inspired songwriters all across the United States to tap more deeply into this power and take responsibility for it as artists. The workshops involve individual writing assignments and the formation of a working songwriters' group as a model experience to be taken back into the participants' home communities. By the end of the workshop, many new songs will have been written, and many new insights gained into the possibilities of this ancient yet contemporary art form.
Members $55 Nonmembers $60
Space is limited to 20 participants. Please register in advance. An instrument is not required.
