NFS To Hold Sing Along in Honor of Pete Seeger

Saturday, February 1st, 3pm, Waban Library Center,1608 Beacon Street, Waban.

Pete Seeger, the banjo-picking troubadour who sang for migrant workers, college students and star-struck presidents, and introduced generations of Americans to their folk music heritage, died this week at the age of 94.  Come celebrate his life through song at a community Sing-Along hosted by the Newton Family Singers on Saturday, February 1st, 3pm at the Waban Library Center.  We’ll sing together as a community, songs straight from Pete's songlist - songs about freedom, equality, justice, peace, the world we love and the strength of community.  As Pete once said himself: "Participation - that's what's gonna save the human race."
