Grow: The Seed
Join artist-in-residence Jenna Knapp and collaborator Sevan Arabajian for an evening of new moon ideation and imagination. The new moon marks the first lunar phase and can symbolize new beginnings in our life. You can use the energy of the new moon to set intentions, imagine the successful completion of your goals, or seed a new idea. Take some time out of your week to relax into a healing sound bath and identify your intention for this new beginning. Then, physically plant your intentions in the native Wisconsin prairie by participating in a meditative seed walk where you'll support the growth of the labyrinth's walls with your powerful intentions.
Sound baths are an ancient form of healing and deep meditation; they include various ambient sounds playing in a space where you can hear and feel their vibrations. Your sound healer for the evening will be Milwaukee’s own Sevan Arabajian, initiated by Akhilanka of the Temple of Singing Bowls in Mysore, India, when he was traveling in the U.S.
The sound bath lasts approximately 45-60 minutes. We recommend arriving 15 minutes ahead of time to give yourself time to set up and prepare. Please bring something to rest on and to cover yourself with (if you think you’ll want that) for the duration, and dress appropriately for the weather. A little insect repellent may be in order, too. Seeds from the native plants growing in the labyrinth will be provided in the form of small pieces of seed paper for easy planting.
