Solstice Celebration
at O’Hanlon Center for the Arts

with Nina Wise
Saturday, June 20, 7:30 PM
O’Hanlon Center for the Arts
616 Throckmorton Ave, Mill Valley, CA

Join us for an evening in celebration of the solstice, marking the longest day of the year.

Together we will mark the turning of the sun through guided meditation, meaningful ritual, uplifting chants and songs that calm the mind, quiet the heart and uplift the spirit. The evening will unfold as a time to pause, reflect, and align with the fullness of light within and around us.  

The evening will also be a celebration of Nina’s recently released album By This Light, Nina’s debut album of chants and blessings. Through the hands of world renown producer of spiritual music, Ben Leinbach, and featuring some of the Bay Area’s finest instrumentalists and vocalists, By This Light, blends the wisdom of Buddhist teachings with the joy of kirtan, the uplifting rhythms of world music, and the trance-inducing power of layered vocal harmonies.

This is a relaxed, participatory gathering. All are welcome. No prior mediation of chanting experience is necessary. Come as you are and join in as you feel comfortable as we gather in community to honor the solstice.
