Surround Sound is an invitation to release some of what the previous week carried, settle your nervous system, and create spaciousness before the next week begins. Join Siri Lorece for an immersive sound bath and guided meditation, with guest Randy Leasman on guitar and live painting by Shayla Ray. An ultimate exhange of creativity and self-care.

Meet Guest Artist: Shayla Ray

Shayla Ray is a Quad Cities-based multidisciplinary artist known for her vibrant colors, whimsical imagery, and touches of surrealism. Inspired by nature, emotion, and human connection, she enjoys bringing art into shared spaces where others can experience the creative process firsthand.

During our sound bath exchange, Shayla will create a peaceful, dreamlike scene using smooth, vivid colors and intuitive brushstrokes inspired by the surrounding instrumentation of your sound bath. Her live painting invites guests to experience art as it unfolds, adding another layer of creativity and connection to the atmosphere.

Come cozy: Bring your yoga mat, blankets, pillows, eye mask, or whatever helps you get comfortable. Some comfort companions will be provided, but they are usually claimed quickly.

This gathering includes:

An immersive sound bath and meditation by Siri Lorece, featuring Randy Leasman (guitar) and live painting by Shayla Ray Art
