Join us for an evening of music, memories, connection - and hot cocoa - at Community Sing with Ken Sheldon!

Gather with friends and neighbors as we sing familiar folk songs, hits from the 60s and 70s, and classics from generations past. No singing experience needed—just bring your voice and your spirit! This is a joyful, relaxed event designed to build community and celebrate the simple pleasure of singing together. All are welcome!

To add to the cozy, campfire feel of the evening, we’ll be serving hot cocoa and gathering around a simulated campfire. While the flames may be faux, the warmth and camaraderie will be absolutely real!

About Ken Sheldon: 

Singer/songwriter Ken Sheldon has recorded several albums of music for adults and children, including Scholastic’s Sing Along and Learn series used in school around the country. He has performed on the radio, television, the stage, and at local venues across New England. He is also the creator of Frost Heaves, a comedy show from “the most under-appreciated town in New Hampshire." 


This program is free and open to all. Please note that library parking is not guaranteed. Patrons who are able are encouraged to take advantage of Peterborough’s walkable downtown by parking in the Depot Square or Riverwalk lots.
