Dave will lead a session created for teenagers and designed to stimulate a supportive environment for artistic exploration through music improvisation.

Do almost nothing: re-present (unaltered and arranged by chance) silent family home movies handed down to Flo, (Ken’s wife) and follow them with a “teach yourself Yiddish” cassette tape.
