Avreeayl Ra’s Healing Arts Initiative: Meditation in Motion
@ Elastic Arts
3429 W Diversey Ave #208, Chicago IL, 60647
Opening Saturday, May 7th, from 8:30PM - 11:30PM
We’re back with another participatory workshop with master drummer and 2018 Elastic Achievement Award recipient Avreeayl Ra! The workshop series explores the healing and spiritual dimensions of music that, not “free,” rather is spontaneously composed collectively by musicians in real time, and which is intended to beneficially adjust the energy fields of participants and witnesses. Avreeayl will be joined by several musician collaborators such as Dave Rempis, Michael Zerang, and Edward Wilkerson, Jr., poets such as G’Ra George Hines, as well as dancers and other healers.
Events in this series are different from a performance and are designed for inner attainment more than entertainment. The concept is founded in a wider meditation practice and belief system centered on music as a means to affect conscious and spiritual energy, and the series is a continuation of similar workshops Avreeayl has held in a Hyde Park yoga studio. Participants are encouraged to bring pillows, blankets, and yoga mats (although ample seating will be provided for those who need or prefer a chair.)
$15 – Tickets available at the door.
