Music and Sound Across Traditions: An Evening of Listening

The OSU Center for the Study of Religion invites you to an evening of religious sound and music. This community-building event will feature instrumental and vocal performances from individuals, community groups, religious organizations and additional friends, all sharing an example of musical or sonic practice from their tradition. In addition, CSR Director Isaac Weiner will speak about the work of the American Religious Sounds Project and exhibition, created in partnership with the Smithsonian Institution’s Traveling Exhibition Services. This interactive poster exhibition will be on display in the event space.

 

Focusing on the role of sound and music in local religious practice, this event strives to build community relationships and showcase religious sounds found throughout Central Ohio. Light refreshments will be served. This event is free and open to the public. RSVPs are requested: follow this link to RSVP.

 

This event is co-sponsored by the Melton Center for Jewish Studies, the Humanities Institute and the Interfaith Association of Central Ohio. 

Due to construction, you must approach the one-way bridge to Audubon Metro Park from the intersection of Whittier and High. To use a map app or GPS, put the location of "Planks Bier Garten" into your phone. Then, proceed west on Whittier to approach the park. The traffic light is extremely long—this is because you are waiting for traffic to cross the one-way bridge. Please wait for the entire light and proceed with caution. The Audubon Center is at the end of the road in the metropark- drive straight to the very end (do not veer right) to find the Audubon parking lot.
