SUMMARY:Full Hunter's Moon Sound Bath & Meditation (Register ASAP)
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Ditas Katague\nDate/Time: Sunday\, October 5\, 6:30-8pm\nCost: $45 Del Ray Artisans member / $55 Non-member\nClass size: 6-25 participants\n(Register  in advance to save your space) \nJoin Ditas for an enchanting Full Moon Sound Bath. This special evening offers the perfect opportunity to release accumulated stress and reconnect with your inner wisdom. \nExperience profound healing vibrations of crystal and Tibetan bowls and gong\, while bathing in the powerful energy of the full moon. Beginning with gentle movement\, then guided meditation\, and culminating with a soundbath where harmonic frequencies help clear energy blockages and induce relaxation. \nThe October Full Moon\, traditionally known as the Hunter’s Moon\, rises as the leaves turn golden and the harvest season reaches its peak. Named for the time when hunters would track game by moonlight to prepare for winter\, this moon symbolizes preparation\, gathering resources\, and honoring the abundance we’ve cultivated. It encourages us to harvest not only the fruits of our labor but also the wisdom we’ve gained throughout the year. \nThis moon phase encourages us to ask: What am I ready to release? What new energies am I ready to welcome? The vibrations of the soundbath will support this powerful intention-setting and letting go process. \nThere will be gentle movement and some light breathwork\, a guided meditation and then the beautiful sound bath will fill the gallery with vibration and sound to help participants relax and release. \nParticipants should bring a yoga/exercise mat or thick blanket\, pillow and water bottle for maximum comfort. Eye mask is optional. \nRegister Now \n\nView other upcoming workshops\, information about the facility\, and policies on the Upcoming Workshops page.

There’s lots of creative time during this 3-hour workshop… No need to rush\, which is one of the first lessons in using resin! All supplies are provided\, but feel free to bring personal embellishments for your piece(s). \nThis workshop does not get into using dyes with resin or building big molds to create one-of-a-kind resined tables (as seen on YouTube)\, but this workshop will provide you with a good understanding of how resin works so you can be bold enough to take the next steps in your creative interests. \nAlthough the class is listed for 3 hours\, you can leave once you have finished your creations. Some students finish very quickly while others take the whole 3 hours to create – there is plenty of time for each person to enjoy the creative process while not feeling rushed. You’ll leave your finished masterpiece(s) to set at the gallery at the end of the workshop\, and pick them up during gallery hours later in the week. \nThe workshop is designed for adults. Children ages 16-17 may participate with parental permission. Children ages 12-15 may participate only with a co-participating adult guardian (guardian must contact instructor in advance). \nRegister Now \n\nView other upcoming workshops\, information about the facility and policies on the Upcoming Workshops page.
