About Noe's Garden

Meadowlark is a nature – inspired music class for young children and caregivers, led by acclaimed indie singer-songwriter Noe Venable. We sing songs from around the world. Singing, chanting, movement, fingerplays, and play along instruments make this a class the wholefamily will enjoy. No prior musical experience required! How our class is different: 1) It’s nature inspired At Meadowlark, we sing songs that will help develop your child’s nature sense. But at Meadowlark, nature includes more than just the things we see every day. We also sing about fairies, mermaids, and other legendary creatures. At Meadowlark, we remember what it’s like to see life through a child’s eyes. Our class honors and nurtures the magic of this time. 2) It’s gentle on the senses Created by an experienced Waldorf teacher, Meadowlark is gentle on the senses. To prevent overwhelm, we balance exuberant moments with quieter ones. Each class also includes a restful lullaby time and puppet show. 3) It’s about connection Our class attracts a very special group of people— mostly parents and a few wonderful nannies who are deeply present with and for their children. We love witnessing the connections that develop between members of our circle. Because this is the deep purpose underlying everything we do: At Meadowlark, we are building a village, one musical circle at a time.

    Instructor

    Noe has three main interests in life– music, nature, and fostering human connection. These threads come together for her in teaching. Whether hiking a trail with a parent-child group or leading a group of women in song, Noe’s mission is the same– to bring people together in ways that encourage authenticity, uplift the spirit and enliven the heart. Also a professional singer-songwriter, Noe has released six critically-acclaimed albums of original songs and toured the country, opening for many artists, including Ani DiFranco. Noe loves working with little ones and adults in a variety of settings. She is the founder of Meadowlark, a nature-inspired parent child music class. She leads a parent child class for Golden Bridges School called Apple Star. She also teaches for Music Together of San Francisco. For women of all ages, she directs Mothersong Chorus, which brings an intergenerational group of women together weekly to sing. Noe holds a masters degree from Harvard Divinity School, and a Waldorf teaching certificate from Antioch, New England. Motherhood, however, has been her greatest teacher. She is mother to Ember, born in 2012, and Peregrine, born in 2015.
