Lullaby Project

Amplifying Love, Connection & Healing for Parents & Caregivers

The Lullaby Project, in collaboration with Carnegie Hall, pairs parents and caregivers with professional musicians and writers to compose and sing lullabies for their children.  Working with the Vermont Network and Writers for Recovery for the last six years, they have brought the Lullaby Project to survivors of domestic and sexual violence in communities and at the Vermont women’s correctional facility.  Each song amplifies love, connection and healing.  Our teaching artists report that this is a powerful experience and the culminating performances that result from the work are amazing. 

This project is funded in Vermont through the Vermont Network Against Domestic and Sexual Violence and the Vermont Department of Corrections.  Northwoods Music Collaborative serves as sponsor for this program. In 2025 NMC piloted a project in Marquette, Michigan, working with partners from the Vermont project and involving UP artists and partners including the Women’s Center of Marquette. In 2026 are repeating this program working with clients at the Women’s Center and presenting their lullabies in a free community concert.
