Join us for the inaugural performance of the ‘Celebrate Abilities’ Concert Series, in honor of Disability Pride Month. This all ages, inclusive musical performance will feature award-winning singer-songwriter Halley Elwell and The Unsinkables, Schreiber’s modern band.

About Halley Elwell

Known for her rich voice and insightful lyrics, Elwell’s music has been featured on radio and television and in apps and has been recognized by ASCAP and the John Lennon Songwriting Contest. In 2025, she undertook her biggest project yet, a memoir-style concept album and podcast called Spontaneous Mutation. Based on her experiences living with neurofibromatosis, the project explores chronic illness, the facial difference movement, disability, and the importance of telling new stories about all of them. Elwell is a member of RAMPD (Recording Artists and Music Professionals with Disabilities).
