Sacred Writing Circle: Death, Transformation, and Remembrance
As we find ourselves in a time of year where the veil between worlds is thin—Halloween, All Saints Day, Día de los Muertos, and more—let us pause and turn to writing as a practice of self-knowing. In this Day of the Dead Sacred Writing Circle—a small, inclusive, interfaith gathering centered around creative writing—we will accompany each other as we explore ourselves and our lineages through guided meditations and creative writing exercises oriented around death, transformation, and remembrance.
Participants will leave with original, written pieces around the following questions: What are practices that help you feel rooted? Who do you consider to be your ancestors? And how do you honor what came before and what will be?
This Sacred Writing Circle will be facilitated by Gianluca Avanzato, a writer, artist, musician, and teacher from Oneonta, New York who holds a Master of Divinity from Harvard Divinity School and a Diploma in Interreligious Studies.
Everyone is welcome: no religious/spiritual affiliation nor creative writing experience necessary. I warmly welcome LGBTQIA+ folks as well as those who have felt left out or cast out by traditional religious institutions.

"Killdeer unifies the collective experiences of Ambrose, Green and Jagels not only through their years of participation in the region’s music scene, but through endeavors in the United States and abroad (...) The embrace of creative versatility extends far beyond the band’s name and deep into Killdeer’s approach to musical composition, with equal focus on cohesion and improvisation."

Graphic Scoring and Musical Improvisation
We can all be music composers. Come learn to draw musical scores! No experience necessary. Bring an instrument if you have one. Instrument not required.
Unlike traditional Western music notation on a five-line stave showing exactly which pitch, duration, and accent should be played, a graphic score can be interpreted differently by each person who plays or sings it. Creation of graphic scores is akin to creating visual art, and they can often express linear development of a story, emotion, or experience. In addition to creating and interpreting original scores, we will engage in group improvisation and interpretation of our scores.
Evan Jagels is a versatile upright and electric bassist, composer, and educator known for his work in modern jazz and improvised music, including co-leading the Killdeer Trio and Duo Extempore. He performs globally with various jazz artists, has recorded with musicians like Arlen Roth and Martin Bisi, and is a lecturer in Music at Hartwick College. Jagels is also a GRAMMY Awards voting member, producer of the Harmony Garden Concert Series, and the creator of "Improvignettes".
