After the Eaton Fires, local sound healing musicians came together to create a calming peaceful and FREE event for the Altadena Community and beyond. We curated a walking set of sound healing performances with a sound map the audience can take part in. “Altadena Heals” was generously hosted and supported by Renata and Talmadge O’Neill at their private gardens. We had over 150 in attendance for our first iteration. This year, we are including visual artists, poets, and dancers.
