Embrace the stillness of winter and celebrate the longest night of the year with the Walker’s Winter Solstice Sound Bath series. As the days grow shorter, immerse yourself in an experience that will rejuvenate you for the new year—or come to simply escape the winter chill.
On December 19 and January 2, join Brittney Martin from Heart Glow Wellness and experimental video artist Shawna Lee in the Skyline Room for a one-hour session at 5:30 or 7 pm. Bring a yoga mat or blanket, get comfortable, and let the soothing vibrations of crystal bowls, gongs, and chimes fill the space while enjoying a live, artist-designed video experience.
Due to high interest, this program is expected to hit capacity (80 participants). On-site preregistration is available starting at 5 pm near the Skyline Room. For each session, registered visitors will be admitted on a first-come, first-served basis, followed by any walk-ups. After you are registered, we suggest arriving at least 5 minutes prior to start time to guarantee entry.
Gallery admission is free on Thursday nights, 5 to 9 pm. Admission tickets are available online or at the Main Lobby desk.

Through her sound baths, she creates an immersive experience that harmonizes mind, body, and spirit.
