Art + Play + Restorative Sound Bath at the Garden

August 15, 2023 @ 6:15 pm - 8:00 pm

Art + Play + Restorative Sound Bath at the Garden
Tuesday, August 15 • 6:15pm–8pm
Join us for an evening of unleashing your creativity, embracing playfulness, and restoring with a sound bath meditation. As adults we tend to get consumed by our responsibilities and forget to tend to our creativity. To live healthier lives, it is important to feel whole and invite our creative energy to be expressed.

Doors will open at 6pm so that you can experience the garden in the peacefully quiet after hours while witnessing the aromas of the flowers coming to life. Please check in and reserve your spot inside the ballroom upon arrival.

We will begin by grounding and setting intentions on the great lawn,then move inside to the large Banyan ballroom. Interactive watercolor art will be led by Veronica and sound bath meditation led by our resident meditation teacher, Franci.

Class begins at 6:30pm on the great lawn (10 minutes), followed by watercolor art using spiritual quotes, and finishing with Sound Bath Meditation to help integrate the evening. We will end at 8pm. Garden gates will be closed at 6:40pm.

We will be using spiritual quotes to support a deeper meditative flow state and fully integrate the experience with a sound bath meditation that will leave you more embodied while allowing more inspiration and insight to arise.

Veronica Pesantes is a connector, thought leader, visionary, producer, curator, advisor, call it what you will – she inspires everyone in her orbit. Veronica has over twenty five years experience in the fields of education and the arts. From her beginnings as a researcher at the Prado in Madrid, she ventured on to manage the international art and education programs at the Guggenheim Museum (New York), where she trained docents and led public tours. Although her leave of absence from her PhD in Art History at the University of Chicago continues to this day (she is a self-proclaimed lapsed academic) she has continued to teach, publish and lecture in the US, Latin America and Europe. In all her work she serves as a bridge that connects the academic sphere to a simpler way to understand and integrate the complex historical narratives surrounding colonialism. She is currently a Professor of Art History at Istituto Marangoni in Miami and has taught art to elementary students for over ten years.
