Sunday Music Session
With the return of
UNO MOMENTO
Join us for a chill Sunday Music Session with Uno Momento for a perfect way to unwind and enjoy some live tunes in an intimate setting!
BYOB
Uno Momento was such a hit at our Holiday program, that we invited them back for a Sunday Music Session. Uno Momento is a perfect name for this new quartet’s one-of-a-kind vibe.
Listen... dance...or just sit back, relax, and let their music create “one moment” in time you’ll remember forever. From Nat King Cole to Diana Krall and from Amy Winehouse to Adele, this is an elite group that delivers la dolce vita for gatherings large and small at country clubs, event venues, private and corporate gatherings, and of course, lounges that serve a martini to die for.

Booked at the Bell - Where the Crawdads Sing
With Regina Marinelli & Melba Toliver
Booked At the Bell will turn their attention to coastal North Carolina as we discuss Where the Crawdads Sing, by Delia Owens.
Owen’s debut novel was written in 2018, became an international sensation, and was adapted for film in 2022. This coming-of-age murder mystery follows two timelines that slowly intertwine. The first timeline describes the life and adventures of a young girl named Kya as she grows up isolated in the marshes of North Carolina. The second timeline follows an investigation into the apparent murder of Chase Andrews, a local “celebrity”. The themes of survival, resilience, and the deep bond between humans and nature are interwoven through the novel.
Please consider supporting independent book shops, such as Book & Puppet Co. in Easton.

An Artist in his Masterpiece … Monet and His Garden at Giverny
Elvira Woodruff will lead our tour as we explore one of the world’s most glorious gardens. She will share the many impressions she took away from her visit to Giverny, and how it changed her own gardening style.
“Claude Monet was a master of color, form and texture in the garden. What he created at Giverny, was nothing short of heavenly! Monet himself called it his ‘masterpiece’. Of all the gardens I’ve visited over the years, this was by far the most magical.”
Limited seating so order your tickets early. $12 includes light refreshments to be served upstairs, at Bell Tower Cultural Center, Martins Creek, PA.

Music of the Spheres
by Meg Green
The body heals and repairs itself when it rests, but in today's fast-paced world, many of us struggle to relax. Since 2016, Meg has seen the amazing impact that sound meditation and energy work can have to help people relax.
We are all vibrational beings, and respond to sound. With tools ranging from gongs and singing bowls to tuning forks and flutes, she works with classes and individuals to help them enter a state of deep relaxation. As the vibrations wash over you, you will find your mind quieting, your breath slowing and your relaxation deepening. As a skilled meditation teacher and coach, Meg works with you to dive deep and explore, releasing stress, letting go of grief, anxiety and depression to unleash your true vibrancy and joy.
Meg Green is a certified Kundalini Yoga & Meditation teacher, an Usui Reiki Master, a former music major, and an artist of sound and vibration. Since 2016, she has helped clients of all ages and backgrounds find deep relaxation through the soothing sounds of gongs, singing bowls, tuning forks, flutes and other meditative instruments.
Think you can't meditate? She can help. Come to The Bell and experience the benefit of Sound to your body.
