A Juneteenth Sound Bath with ArinMaya + Exhibition Tour

June 17, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

This Juneteenth weekend MoCADA invites you out for an afternoon of realignment and reclamation.

Join us as genre-bending singer and sound healer ArinMaya leads a sound bath meditation designed to center your well-being. It’s a basic human right, a necessity in Black communities. The event will also feature a private tour of the ‘M’Dear’ exhibition guided by curator Crystal Whaley at MoCADA’s Abolition House on Governors Island. And best of all, it’s free!

 

So grab your yoga mat and come relax, relate, and release on the lawn in community!

 

While this program is centering women and femmes, however, all are welcome to participate. (Though we will have a limited number of mats available on site, we encourage you to bring your own).

 

DATES: SATURDAY, JUNE 17th 2023

TIME: 1-2:30PM (1PM SOUND BATH, 1:45PM REFLECTIONS, 2:00PM EXHIBITION TOUR)
