This July 4th weekend, we’re not celebrating — we’re tending to what’s been scorched and what’s still unfolding. Red, White & Bruised: The Soft Rebellion is a sound-centered gathering born from the grief in our city — in the wake of fires that choked our skies, and amid ongoing ICE raids that continue to separate families and spread fear.
This is not a party. This is a place to rest. A meditative sound bath for the overburdened and the underheld. A quiet container to lay down your rage, your grief, your numbness, your breath. A space where stillness is protest, where sound is balm, and where no one has to explain why they’re tired. Whether you’re mourning a loved one, grieving what’s happening in our neighborhoods, or simply surviving the weight of this moment — you are welcome here. Come as you are. Pay what you can.
Leave softer.
