Come savor the sights and sounds of summer at a Raise the Bar Summer Social featuring a live performance by Margo Murphy, John Roberts, and a guest August 9 in Sylvan Grove. Pack a team picnic and join us from 12:30-1:30 pm for a change of lunchtime scenery and a chance to connect with colleagues against the backdrop of one of the most serene spaces on Seattle’s campus.

Margo Murphy and John Roberts grew up on opposite shores of the Puget Sound, but when they connected at festival jam session five years ago, they realized they’d long been singing the same tune. They perform traditional, American, early country music inspired by the tradition of people making their own music at home. Find more of their music here.

Special thanks to the UW Resilience Lab for awarding the Whole U grant funding to make this event possible with addition thanks to UW Medicine, AT&T, BECU, and US Bank for sponsoring the Raise the Bar summer wellness challenge.
