World Listening Day

On July 16, 2024, Councilmember Laurie-Anne Sayles presents a proclamation to commemorate World Listening Day and is joined by EveryMind Inc, Story Tapestries, the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Montgomery County and the 4SW club at Northwest High School. World Listening Day takes place every year on July 18 and is dedicated to fostering understanding of the world and its natural environment, societies, and cultures through the practices of listening observation. The Council encourages residents to join the worldwide celebration of World Listening Day by taking sound walks, listening to music, reducing noise pollution, practicing mindfulness, and appreciating diverse perspectives.
