Every week in our music classes at Music Together Flemington, babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and the grownups who love them come together for a time of musical play. Little ones love playing along in class, and caregivers love being a part of their children’s growth into confident music-makers. And everyone loves our songs that’ll have you tapping along in no time

The Laramie Project

About the Play:
In 1998, Matthew Shephard was murdered, in Laramie, Wyoming — less than two months shy of his 22nd birthday.
The revelation that Matt was gay, and that this knowledge by his killers contributed to the ruthless nature of his assault, became national and international news — and Moises Kaufman and members of the Tectonic Theater Project traveled to Laramie to talk with members of the community.
Hours upon hours of interviews were done, with folks that knew Matthew, and those that did not, trying to learn what was happening, or what was broken, in the community that could lead to such a tragic attack.
The play created from those interviews, The Laramie Project, is among the most produced plays nationally and internationally. It is a portrayal of a town and the individuals within it, that are forced to consider their views and prejudices, large and small.
It is the story of a community and those within it that decided they would like to be defined by love rather than by hate.

Open Jazz Jams
2023-04-30 13:00 - 17:00
Open Jazz Jams at Flemington DIY will be held from 1-5 PM the first Sunday of every month starting March 5th, 2023. The sessions will provide an opportunity for musicians to play with an experienced band. From 1-2 PM the hosting musicians for the week will play. Other musicians will be invited to sit in and play between 2-5 PM (typically a minimum of 2 songs each, circumstances permitting). With the exception of drum kit and piano, all musicians should bring their own equipment (instruments, amps, drum sticks, microphones, etc.). The sessions will focus primarily on jazz standards and other jazz tunes contained in Hal Leonard Real Books volumes 1 through 3. Newcomers will be coached through the process.
A $3 to $5 donation to Flemington DIY will be required from each musician that plays at the session. Visitors that just want to listen to the music are also welcome to attend for all or any part of the 1-5 PM sessions free of charge.
For questions about the sessions, or to be added to the monthly text notification list for last minute cancellations or reschedules, please email njjazzjam@gmail.com

Walking the Path Alone and Together: A Men’s Support Group
2023-04-19 19:00 - 21:00
Please join us on the first and third Wednesday of every month where men from all walks of life are welcome to gather at the DIY and share their life experience in a safe, supportive and judgment-free setting.
The group organizer, and your host, David (Dave) Eisenhardt, is neither a counselor nor a therapist, but a Flemington resident who believes strongly in the value of a community for men. His own life experiences include marriage, divorce and re-marriage, raising children, the 9/11 terrorist attack, navigating the pandemic, etc.
The structure of the meeting will include a brief opening remark from the organizer and then we will go around the circle and invite attendees to share (for 3 or 4 minutes) what is on their mind while others listen in a supportive way without counseling or offering advice during the meeting. Attendees are welcome to also simply attend and listen.
Each meeting will run two hours and attendees are asked to sign up in advance, so that we know how many chairs we need and that we don’t exceed occupancy limits of the space. While the meeting is free to attend, we will pass a hat for those who may wish to make a donation to the DIY space.
The gathering is founded on inclusivity and welcomes all participants. Our core values insist on respect for the individual based on each person’s inherent dignity and value regardless of differences of race, creed, color, religion, age, disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, political opinions or affiliations, socio-economic circumstance, or veteran status.
Water and Coffee will be available.
