High Desert Choir and Distance Duet

High Desert Test Sites and local multidisciplinary artist Carolyn Pennypacker Riggs present High Desert Choir, a free collaborative vocal group to foster connection among a vast desert community. The Choir supports dialogue and action around community needs of mental health, civic engagement and environmental conservation. Riggs describes the choir process as “Social Sound Sculpture” and the project will culminate with “Distance Duet,” a series of outdoor public performances in the bouldered wash at A-Z West, from Nov. 22–23, 2024.
