Sound-healing yoga is a unique and unparalleled experience that combines two beautiful meditative elements. Gather in the Crocker’s ballroom and be guided through a gentle, 45-minute, flow yoga class by Angie Franklin, founder of Afro Yoga, while being enchanted by the vocals and healing sounds created by Niva Flor, Ph.D, an experienced sound meditation instructor. This program is open to all experience levels. Those who wish to participate in the yoga instruction should bring their own yoga mat. Participants who only want to enjoy the healing sound meditation are welcome. Registration is not required but space is limited, and registration is recommended.

Spend an evening experiencing the joy of art and food at a slower pace. You will begin with an in-depth look at select works of art in the Museum’s permanent collection, savoring each piece through close examination and discussion. Then, sit down to a family-style, farm-to-fork meal prepared by Chef Matt Woolston of Supper Club, recipient of Slow Food Sacramento’s “Snail of Approval.” Relaxing and stress-free, this event, presented in partnership with Slow Food Sacramento, will be an evening to remember. With-wine option includes two pairings.

 

Space is limited, and tickets must be purchased by September 14.
