Many schools in the New Trier township have clubs or programs that provide a space for our LGBTQIA+ students and allies. These clubs vary in their formats, purposes, and to the extent they support our students during the instructional day. Some clubs exist as a safe space while others are for advocacy and change. This session is for those club leaders--and those interested in forming such a club--to come together to share our club structures, purposes, resources, and experiences.
This session will explore respectful practices when integrating music from a culture that is not your own, or that you are less familiar with. We will dive into cultural considerations and practical applications that can be used with any age group or setting (general music/choral/instrumental), in order to celebrate diverse musical cultures and to avoid causing harm or hurt.
