Welcome to a sacred space and time, where art’s spiritual power creates the insights, healing and transformation you need.
Find inspiration in the extraordinary artwork of The Soul of the Land, the current exhibit at Life Force Shamanic Arts & Healing.
Expect serene music, incense, and other sensory soothing stimuli aiding your shift into the deep contemplation where healing happens. Chairs and pillows are provided for meditation, and paper, pens, crayons, markers and other drawing implements are available if you wish to write or draw your reflections.
A magical art installation created especially for tonight’s Art Meditation by Steven Blaine Adams features selected artworks in the exhibit. This imaginative display enhances the meaning and symbolism of the artworks, inviting you to go deeper into the visionary world. Click here for photos of previous Art Meditation Night installations.
Tonight’s art installation is inspired by artworks in the show by Bianca Dorsey, Carol H. Sherman and Jessica Marie Thompson (see below)
At the end of our time together, we have the opportunity to share our insights about art and life with this community of like-minded souls. Hosted by Life Force Founder and Director Joan Forest Mage and Associate Artistic Director Steven Blaine Adams.
