11/21/2025 South/West Madison Building Unity Gathering and Fall of Freedom Concert!

Friday, Nov. 21, 2025 at 6:00 pm at Arboretum Cohousing Community (1137 Erin St. – Madison) BUG and Fall of Freedom Concert!
The goals for this and other Building Unity Gatherings include sharing fellowship, food, and information about peace, justice, sustainability, and democracy opportunities and to explore the possibilities for collaboration.
Unlike most BUGs, this event will NOT be a potluck. Small plate snacks and refreshments will be available starting at 6:00 pm. At about 7:00 pm a Fall of Freedom Concert will begin. The first act will be a duo from the Arboretum Cohousing Community – “5 Cent Miracle.” The second act will be by another Madison duo – “MaD Mentchen“ – the folk rock duo of Michale Bell and Dan Grabois.
We thank Arboretum Cohousing Community as well as the performing artists for their generous contribution to this very exciting and inspiring event!
This event will be free, and, donations will be encouraged to help us cover our costs. Thank you.
