Salons

MEET. MAKE. WONDER. LEARN.

Our salons bring together different communities at The BirdHouse in the spirit of inquiry and conviviality. We enjoy food, music, and each other’s company. In 2020, we continued our Salon’s virtually.

We focus a portion of the event on a selected topic for a roundtable discussion, inspired by a definition of the word “murmur”: The quiet expression of a particular feeling by a group of people.
