Grow: The Seed
Join artist-in-residence Jenna Knapp and collaborator Sevan Arabajian for an evening of new moon ideation and imagination. The new moon marks the first lunar phase and can symbolize new beginnings in our life. You can use the energy of the new moon to set intentions, imagine the successful completion of your goals, or seed a new idea. Take some time out of your week to relax into a healing sound bath and identify your intention for this new beginning. Then, physically plant your intentions in the native Wisconsin prairie by participating in a meditative seed walk where you'll support the growth of the labyrinth's walls with your powerful intentions.

Sound baths are an ancient form of healing and deep meditation; they include various ambient sounds playing in a space where you can hear and feel their vibrations. Your sound healer for the evening will be Milwaukee’s own Sevan Arabajian, initiated by Akhilanka of the Temple of Singing Bowls in Mysore, India, when he was traveling in the U.S.

The sound bath lasts approximately 45-60 minutes. We recommend arriving 15 minutes ahead of time to give yourself time to set up and prepare. Please bring something to rest on and to cover yourself with (if you think you’ll want that) for the duration, and dress appropriately for the weather. A little insect repellent may be in order, too. Seeds from the native plants growing in the labyrinth will be provided in the form of small pieces of seed paper for easy planting.

Nourish: The Soil
Join artist-in-residence Jenna Knapp and collaborator Sevan Arabajian for an evening of full moon nourishment. The full moon is a time for releasing and cleansing so we can promote growth in our lives. Just as the garden is illuminated differently under a full moon, so are any obstacles or interferences that are keeping us from our dreams. In their second collaboration of the season, Jenna and Sevan will guide you through an evening of metaphorical tilling and symbolic fertilizing so you can nourish your dreams, desires, and delights. First, Sevan will lead participants through a sound journey to help illuminate any obstacles or interferences in our lives. Once we recognize our blocks, it becomes easier to let go of what is no longer serving us. Enjoying that space as it starts to clear, Jenna will lead a labyrinth walk where participants will be invited to nurture the garden itself by casting fertilizer: taking care of the land, as it holds us in our healing.

Reflect: The Mirror
Join artist-in-residence Jenna Knapp and collaborator Sevan Arabajian for an evening of deep reflection. In their first collaborative event of the season, Jenna and Sevan invite you to look inward and give yourself the space to acknowledge the change and evolution of the past two years. The evening will begin with a sound bath underneath two beautiful trees, led by Sevan. Then, participants are invited to join Jenna in the labyrinth for a sunset mirror-walk where we might just start to see things differently.
