Lenten Mini-Concerts
First Congregational Church is providing a series of Lenten mini-concerts. Our final concert will be on March 29th with Beth Pollaris sharing music on the singing bowls. Beth Pollaris is a native of the Claremont area. After graduating from Stevens high school in 1998 she attended UNH where she studied Studio Art with a minor in English and Business Administration. Eight years later she found her passion for meditation and the healing arts.
Beth has taught classes out of her home since 2014 and in 2021 she opened One Tree Wellness in Newport. Beth’s passion is to help people find peace and presence through the healing modalities of meditation, mindfulness, coaching, Qigong energy healing and hypnotherapy. Our doors will be open to the public at 12:00 pm for quiet contemplation. The music will begin at 12:10 pm. Please feel free to bring a snack, some coffee, or a light meal while enjoying the music and ambiance of our sanctuary. The concert will be 20 minutes long followed by a quiet time until 1:00 pm for those who want to stay. All are welcome to come and relax -- whether it's a day off, a lunch break from work, or an interlude while out marketing.
Carla has played the piano and organ for over 28 years in a variety of church settings. She is new to the Claremont area having moved here to be close to family.
