English Change-Ringing: A Mathematical-Musical Team Sport

Enrollment: Limited: Advance sign-up required
Attendance: Repeating event, participants welcome at any session
Prereq: please rsvp by email in advance

Friday evening at the Church of the Advent, Boston, & Saturday midday at the Old North Church, throughout IAP. Come to any or all, but please sign up by email in advance.  Transportation arrangement details will be provided by email.

Come and learn how to ring church bells in the style of English Change Ringing! Pull a rope that swings a bell that weighs half a ton! But don't worry: it doesn't require much strength at all.

Change ringing is a wonderful hobby that involves careful control of the heavy bells to manipulate them into producing the beautiful music of mathematical patterns.
