Cincinnati

Join composer Jenn Howd and The Well for a self-guided sound walk in Camp Washington on June 26th from 4:00-7:00pm at The Well during Revamp the Camp.

In October 2022, Jenn & The Well hosted two sound-collecting events, asking the favorite sounds of households and businesses— the clanking of bottles in The Gaslight Cafe, the coos of mourning doves by Wavepool Art Gallery, the twinkling of wind chimes on a front porch, children laughing, ocean waves, and much more.

Jenn used these sounds to create two tracks of new music for The Well’s national Mindful Music Moments program–bringing daily mindfulness and music into 300+ schools nationwide. LISTEN HERE.

Jenn also created interactive SonicMaps, which use your phone’s GPS to play the favorite sounds we collected as you stroll through the Cincinnati neighborhood. You can also access and interact with the SonicMap from home using the links below. If you plan on using the SonicMap, we recommend you download it prior to going on your walking tour in case your connection is spotty.
