An evening of song, dream-talk and food with Daniel Godínez Nivón and special guests, including gaelic singer Deirdre Graham.

Everyone is welcome for this informal dinner, come in and grab and bowl of something warm as we share lullabies, dreams, and discuss the quiet rituals that carry us from waking into sleep. Through listening, stories, and conversation, we’ll explore lullabies and songs as more than children’s songs, as carriers of care, protection, memory, and connection.

Drawing on Daniel’s practice, personal dream stories and Gaelic tradition, we’ll chat about how songs hold landscapes, knowledge and histories, and how dreams continue these threads through the night. Come and go as you please, bring a dish if you wish but the communal dinner is free and open to all. Dinner from 6pm.

Folk from Another thought book group will be there too, who have been reading a short text called Ancestral dreams by Sidarta Ribeiro ahead of the event. You may wish to read this too, but don’t feel you have to, it’s just another dreamy reference of many to bring with us in to the night.

A warm, welcoming evening to sing the night in, listen deeply, and enjoy stories, songs, and dreams together.
