Let’s get together and jam out at our Boards & Chords virtual music festival, celebrating and showcasing nonspeaking songwriters from across the globe! We put this shindig together to show off the talent of our spellers and typers who create music and song. This free virtual concert is filled with heart-stopping tunes, toe-tapping rhythms, and a walloping amount of fun and community! We want this event available to everyone in the Spellerverse worldwide, so we’ve created two showtimes spanning multiple geographical regions and time zones. Calling all nonspeakers across our unique and wonderful Spellerverse, get your groove on and submit a proposal for a song, or get your family, friends, and allies together, get online, grab some tasty nosh, and sit back and enjoy the entertainment!

Unrestricted Interest

We are thankful to have Unrestricted Interest as our yearly Boards & Chords Co-Host. Unrestricted Interest is devoted to neurodivergent listening, learning, and languaging and moves against the notion that creative life should be normalized under neurotypical demands and that writing flourishes in all directions, as do lives. They gather with neurodivergent writers to explore writing practices in their own way, at their own pace. They are also our partner in Neurolyrical Cafe held every month.
