      <image:title>Gatherings - Afternoon at the Audubon Center with Girl Debord &amp;amp; Lupita Limón Corrales - For 20+ years the Audubon Center at Debs Park has been a beacon for how conservation organizations can work within our cities to cultivate a deeper relationship between people and place. Through monthly hikes, restoration days, bird walks, field trips, movie nights, community festivals, and hosting gatherings like these each and every month, the Audubon Center at Debs Park has played an essential role in building a more diverse and inclusive conservation movement here in Los Angeles. We’re so grateful for the humans of the Audubon Center, the advocacy that they champion in dialogue with local culture and native ecology, and it is an absolute honor to gather here together on the 3rd Saturday of (almost) every month.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Earth Day is Every Day: Tree Propagation &amp;amp; Ecological Practice with Paige Emery - Paige Emery is an ecological artist and herbalist exploring ways of remembering the Earth. Her work interweaves healing arts and critical ecology, ancestral memory and embodied futurities, ecopoetics and socioenvironmental praxis. As a way of life, her practice is rooted in reciprocity with the Earth. Paige’s practice stems from a background in art, herbalism, ancestral medicine, eco-philosophy, environmentalism, and learning from the Earth. Her work serves as a bridge between the internal and external landscapes of ecological consciousness through guided plant rituals, multispecies installations, ecopoetic meditations, embodied ecology walks, herbal healing sessions, music soundscapes for more-than-human connection, and sharing plant remedies with her community.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - In the Paradise Garden of Endless Melodies with Surya Botofasina - Raised on the Sai Anantam Ashram, Surya Botofasina was mentored from an early age by the legendary harpist, pianist and spiritual leader Turiyasangitananda. His musical, personal and spiritual growth within the Ashram remains the central reference point in his life. ‘The very core of my being resides and has been cultivated at the sacred grounds of Sai Anantam Ashram,’ he says today. ‘Each value, aspect, place, memory, person, quality, feeling, bhajan, Satsang, energetic representation collectively composes this person.’ As his most recent album’s title indicates, he was and is an ‘Ashram Sun’, and the strong feminine presence of Swamini Turiyasangitananda and his mother Radha infuses how he hears and offers music. Surya has collaborated with friends and luminaries like Georgia Anne Muldrow, André 3000, Carlos Niño, Nate Mercereau, Shabaka, Saul Williams, Marshall Allen, and Angel Bat Dawid. His work as the Music Director of the Sai Anantam Ashram Singers has seen him tour internationally to honor the devotional music of Swamini Turiyasangitananda.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - In the Paradise Garden of Endless Melodies with Surya Botofasina - The Storrier Stearns Japanese Garden was created by landscape designer &amp; craftsman Kinzuchi Fujii between 1935 – 1940 for Charles and Ellamae Storrier Stearns. It is the only intact example of a major Japanese-style garden created before World War II for a residence in Southern California. The teahouse which we gather alongside is named Niko-an, meaning Abode at Two Ponds. The original teahouse was built in Japan to Kinzuchi Fujii’s exacting specifications, then disassembled and shipped to Los Angeles for reassembly in the garden. The twelve tatami mats covering the floor signified a teahouse of great importance. Kinzuchi Fujii’s son possessed his father’s original plans and many photographs taken during the garden’s first construction. These were an invaluable resource during the garden’s recent restoration. Though the original teahouse burned down in 1981, it has been rebuilt. Dr. Takeo Uesugi, an accomplished landscape architect and designer, worked closely with the current owners, Jim and Connie Haddad, to restore the teahouse, faithfully adhering to Kinzuchi’s original drawings, photographs and architectural plans. We’re very grateful to Jim, Connie, Virginia, and Heidi for welcoming Living Earth to the breathtaking Storrier Stearns Japanese Garden.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - The Raised Voice: A Night of Eco-Vocal Potency - Ashton Phillips is a socially and ecologically-engaged artist and writer focused on the plasticity of bodies, the transness of matter, and the poetics of impurity, mutual contamination, and mass extinction/survival. He grew up in “Chemical Valley” West Virginia, sharing water, ground, and sky with legions of forever chemicals. Today, he cares for a colony of polystyrene-metabolizing mealworm/beetles and a plastic-fertilized garden as trans ecological praxis. His most recent work experiments with modes of collective listening and interspecies voice as methods for resisting erasure, intimidation, and isolation in dystopian times. Ashton’s multi-sensory installation and performances have been shown across the US and abroad, including recent exhibitions at MaryTwo Gallery, Switzerland; Human Resources, LA; the Audobon Center at Debs Park; 2220 Art + Archives, LA; Tiger Strikes Asteroid, LA; and Ely Center for Contemporary Arts, CT. His creative and critical writing have been published by Trans Studies Quarterly; Antennae - The Journal of Nature in Visual Culture; and Contemporary Art Review Los Angeles.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - The Raised Voice: A Night of Eco-Vocal Potency - Metabolic Studio is an interdisciplinary art and research hub based in Los Angeles, California. Directed by artist Lauren Bon, the studio operates with a mission to explore and address critical social and environmental issues through art interventions and innovative projects aimed at reparation. “Artists Need to Create On the Same Scale that Society Has the Capacity to Destroy.”  Sherrie Rabinowitz coined the phrase "We must create at the same scale that we can destroy", which connects deeply to the formation and goals of Metabolic Studio. Their brilliant work often revolves around themes of water, land use, energy and seeking to reimagine and redefine the relationships between humans, non-humans, and living systems. Over the years they’ve bridged the gap between art, science, and activism, offering creative solutions and alternative perspectives on pressing social and environmental challenges.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Matthewdavid’s River Glitch: Sunset on the LA River - Having emerged as a luminary of the LA Beat Scene, Matthewdavid has been a longtime pillar of LA’s creative ecosystems through stewardship of Leaving Records, Listen To Music Outside In The Daylight Under A Tree, his long-running radio show with dublab, and through his own musical expressions which have led to collaborations with Carlos Niño, André 3000, and Flying Lotus. Now having started a family, having lost biological and chosen parents, having struggled with aging and embodiment, having launched a record label and cultivated (against all the usual odds and incentives) an enriching and expanding community of musicians, artists, and enthusiasts, Matthewdavid’s fingernails are pretty damn caked with the soil of life and we love him very much.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Resonance: A Yoga &amp;amp; Sound Journey with Qur’an Shaheed and Jesse Justice - Founded in opposition to overdevelopment and the expansion of the 710 Freeway, Arlington Garden is Pasadena's only dedicated public garden. Since breaking ground 20 years ago, this three-acre urban oasis has blossomed into a vibrant wildlife habitat for Pasadena's native flora and fauna, an outdoor classroom, and the host to the only remaining orange grove along historic Orange Grove Boulevard. We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - 12th Annual Bob Baker Day (Postponed Due To Rain) - Bob Baker Marionette Theater is an iconic Los Angeles institution that has served our communities with creativity, joy, and imagination since 1963. They are the longest continuous running puppet theater in the United State, a designated Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument, and for more than 60 years have worked to preserve, educate, and innovate at the intersection of Puppetry and the Allied Arts. The Bob Baker Marionette Theater is home to more than 3,000 puppets, one of LA’s greatest archives of both puppet history and novelty music, and have played an essential role in entertainment culture outside of the theater having worked on everything from Mister Rogers Neighborhood to Steven Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

      <image:title>Gatherings - Emerald Necklace Day with Amigos de los Rios - Amigos de los Rios is working to create the Emerald Necklace: a natural infrastructure network of green spaces, green schools, parks, and trails throughout under-served communities in the Los Angeles Basin. Their work is essential in connecting the mountains to the sea, helping to provide equitable access to nature, and protecting our environment and urban communities from the threats of climate change.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Emerald Necklace Day with Amigos de los Rios - Peck Road Water Conservation Park is a stunning 180 acre former alluvial pebble quarry located within a dense area of unincorporated East Los Angeles County. Peck features a sweeping view of the San Gabriel Mountains and double lake that was formed as a shallow spreading basin when the Army Corps channeled the San Gabriel and Rio Hondo Rivers and later deepened by the quarrying process. This urban site is a microcosm of our LA Basin urban watershed in terms of water resources: stormwater and municipal water supply management, active transportation, access to outdoor recreation opportunities, habitat protection. Amigos De Los Rios’ Emerald Necklace Group green infrastructure and urban forestry work at Peck provides regional air quality and water resources protection, greenhouse gas reduction, heat island reduction and the benefits of access to nature and regional trails to adjacent schools and residential communities. This work amplifies Peck Road Water Conservation Park as a place to celebrate the natural and cultural history of our watershed; improved access to physical recreation and sense of place; and opportunities for environmental stewardship and civic engagement.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Green-House: ‘Hinterlands’ Album Release Concert - As Green-House, musicians Olive Ardizoni and Michael Flanagan engage human nature and the natural world through joyous, dynamic synthesis. Overlaying frequencies and expressions like camouflage, their deeply layered collaborative process begins with either artist; Ardizoni is often drawn to melody, Flanagan to harmonics. The power lies in how their ideas helix together, achieving a depth greater than the sum of its parts. For their first LP with new label home, Ghostly International, Green-House grows and refines their vivid instrumental songcraft with uncharted, genre-defying freedom and movement, a more active, percussive, and emotion-filled energy, marked by flowing bodies of sound and sweeping vistas. Hinterlands tunes into the beauty of the world with defiant, radical sincerity.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Pisces Plantasia: A Night of Plants &amp;amp; Feelings - Club Gay Gardens is a collective of queer volunteers established in 2022 who steward a native habitat parkway garden outside the Glendale arts nonprofit, Junior High LA. They strive to create a space that is educational and supportive for queer community members to develop their skills in landscaping and ecology while making friends and connecting with the neighborhood. By building a garden from an abandoned parkway strip, CGG provide an opportunity for community members to transform access to local green space and reimagine their roles as local environmental stewards. Listen to their story in this interview by Hollywood Futurist on Orange Radio, or read more in last year’s LA Times article by Malia Mendez.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Pisces Plantasia: A Night of Plants &amp;amp; Feelings - Plant Material is an ecologically and aesthetically opinionated store selling horticulture, garden tools and art objects of consequence.  They believe that as individuals, families and communities, the time has come for us to begin tending our gardens and our city with a new ethic and reinvigorated botanical point of view.  You know how most nurseries kind of just sell everything? Plant Material is not like that. PM’s horticultural offerings are composed of a mix of natives, species wholly regionally appropriate to Southern California, and non-GMO edibles.  No frivolous annuals, no twee succulents, never invasive species. In the belief that we need to contribute ecologically when able, let's invest in a perenially blooming future together.    In addition to more-than-human comrades, PM offers garden tools that are sustainably minded, ruged, and sourced from manufacturers who value labor and craft. They also dabble in art objects and ongoing creative collaborations that mine the endless depth and meaning of what a garden is. Current pieces can be found in their garden shops from our friends Sarah Rara (of Lucky Dragons) and Chris Kallmyer.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Carlos Niño &amp;amp; Friends: ‘Bubble Bath For Giants’ Album Release Celebration - A prolific album Producer, expansive Percussionist, experimental Composer, connector, and communicator, Carlos Niño is known primarily for his main project Carlos Niño &amp; Friends, and for his extensive work with both Saul Williams and on André 3000’s New Blue Sun. Niño describes his "Carlos Niño &amp; Friends" sound as "Spiritual, Improvisational, Space Collage.” He qualifies: "Why Spiritual? Because there is always a spiritual intention and center, feeling and vibrational message in these records. Why Improvisational? Because I approach the making of this music without any preconceived structures, I just open up to what I am hearing and feeling and experiment until I get the pieces where I want them. The preparation and information in the improvisations is our whole lives. It's an open state of communication. Why Space Collage? Because it's all about relationship and perspective, interval, layering, moving, listening, and massaging the mixes…"</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Carlos Niño &amp;amp; Friends: ‘Bubble Bath For Giants’ Album Release Celebration - The Santa Barbara Whale House was built by Michael Carmichael (and some of his friends) between the years of 1973 and 1978. It was immediately considered a great architectural achievement with its 75 foot a blue tiled indoor-outdoor pool, hand carved sauna, hundreds of thousands of hand cut cedar shingles, artfully undulating plaster, Danish stained glass in every window cut with wave patterns, Willy-Wonka-esque elevator, indoor spa, and inumerable other fantastical and delightful details. The home is built around a castle-like tower of ferro-cement and foraged river rock from the creek that passes through the property.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Afternoon at the Audubon Center with Holy Pepperoni - For 20+ years the Audubon Center at Debs Park has been a beacon for how conservation organizations can work within our cities to cultivate a deeper relationship between people and place. Through monthly hikes, restoration days, bird walks, field trips, movie nights, community festivals, and hosting gatherings like these each and every month, the Audubon Center at Debs Park has played an essential role in building a more diverse and inclusive conservation movement here in Los Angeles. We’re so grateful for the humans of the Audubon Center, the advocacy that they champion in dialogue with local culture and native ecology, and it is an absolute honor to gather here together on the 3rd Saturday of (almost) every month.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Resonance: A Yoga &amp;amp; Sound Journey with Qur’an Shaheed and Sharada Shashidhar - Founded in opposition to overdevelopment and the expansion of the 710 Freeway, Arlington Garden is Pasadena's only dedicated public garden. Since breaking ground 20 years ago, this three-acre urban oasis has blossomed into a vibrant wildlife habitat for Pasadena's native flora and fauna, an outdoor classroom, and the host to the only remaining orange grove along historic Orange Grove Boulevard. We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Beehive Collective: Mesoamérica Resiste - The Beehive Design Collective is a wildly motivated, all-volunteer, activist arts collective dedicated to “cross-pollinating the grassroots” by creating collaborative, anti-copyright images for use as educational and organizing tools. They work as word-to-image translators of complex global stories, shared through conversations with affected communities. The work of the Beehive Collective is multidisciplinary and multifaceted. They are most recognized for expansive narrative graphics campaigns, but also put a lot of time and energy into projects on the ground in communities where they are based. They create graphics, share stories, tour with our work, connect with local to global efforts, and shape collective experience. As with their narrative posters, there is no way to separate the various types of work they do – everything intersects and nothing stands alone.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Francesca Heart: A Sunset Performance on the LA River - Francesca Mariano (also known as Francesca Heart and Serpentine Dance) is a grammy-nominated artist working across sound, movement, installation, and somatic research. With volcanic and marine roots in Southern Italy, her practice emerges at as an interdisciplinary research on hydrofeminism, mythological acoustics, and landscape choreology. Her acclaimed albums Eurybia and Sphinx Nouvelle are released by US pioneering label Leaving Records and have received praise from Pitchfork, Vogue Italia, Bandcamp Daily, and others for their visionary fusion of ambient, ceremonial, and electronic forms. She investigates how bodies- human, more-than-human, geological- carry memory, myth, and transformation. Her work is driven by the belief that listening is a radical tool for reconfiguring our relationship with the earth and the cosmos. Through choreographic scores, sonic explorations, and performative installations, she mainly focuses on the Mediterranean as a resonant body, a space of stratified histories and post-human futures. Her approach to music is at once playful and research-focused, with a passion for cinematic textures inspired by 80s and 90s film composers such as Eric Serra, and 2000s’ video game sounds she used to play as a child with her brother.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Odeya Nini at the Schindler House - In an early letter, Pauline Schindler wrote, “One of my dreams, Mother, is to have, someday, a little joy of a bungalow, on the edge of the woods and mountains near a crowded city, which shall be open just as some people’s hearts are open, to friends of all classes and types…”. Pauline realized that dream with her marriage to architect Rudolph Schindler. Together they built the 1922 Kings Road house that would come to be known as an architectural landmark, the birthplace of the Southern California modernism we celebrate today, The Schindler House. Pauline’s radical social ideas informed its design as a live/work space for two couples, and Los Angeles’ artistic and political avant-garde flocked to her salons for decades. The MAK Center for Art and Architecture was conceived in this spirit and through seasonal exhibitions, tours, open hours, workshops, and so much more this very special home is a treasure of Los Angeles’ history.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Friday Night Moonlight Hike with Aaron Shaw - Multi-instrumentalist Aaron Shaw is one of Los Angeles’s brightest young composers, producers, arrangers, band leaders, and music directors. A frequent fixture at The World Stage in Leimert Park, Shaw has collaborated with everyone from Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra, Phil Ranelin, Herbie Hancock, and Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, to Mary J. Blige, Dave Chapelle, Tyler, The Creator, Anderson .Paak, Nightmares on Wax and many more less well known OG, established, emerging, and underground Artists in the LA Jazz, Hip-Hop, Rap, Electronic, and Experimental Music scenes. Born and raised in Ladera Heights, he cut his teeth at the Fernando Pullum Community Arts Center and the LA County High School for the Arts (LACHSA) before eventually entering the tutelage of Kamasi Washington, who he is featured with in tandem musical conversation on the entirety of the 2025 release Saul Williams meets Carlos Niño &amp; Friends at TreePeople. After years of study, dedication, and gig-work, the path to his first full-length release proved to be a perilous one. And So It Is, out February 13th on Leaving Records, documents the physical, musical, and spiritual transformation thrust upon an already extraordinary talent.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Friday Night Moonlight Hike with Aaron Shaw - Born in 1973 from the hopes and dreams of a teenager, TreePeople is now one of the largest environmental organizations headquartered in Southern California. They have inspired, engaged, and supported more than 3 million people to take action for our environment by planting and caring for more than 3 million trees in our local forests, mountains, parks, and our neighborhoods. Through on-the-ground research and educational programs, TreePeople shares knowledge with policymakers, students, educators, and communities around the world. After fires burn, TreePeople reforests. When schools are covered in concrete, TreePeople creates green schoolyards. When communities experience food insecurity, TreePeople distributes fruit trees.

      <image:title>Gatherings - Listen To Music Outside In The Daylight Under A Tree - La Tierra de la Culebra was founded in the early 1990s as a response to the uprising that was spurred by the beating of Rodney King by LAPD. Artist Tricia Ward received a grant by Los Angeles’s Department of Cultural Affairs to create a healing space and hoped to create a park where she would not only showcase her sculptural work, but cultivate a place to experience nature. Reclaiming a lot just off of the 110, this park was built by neighbors working in community &amp; for years was stewarded by the founding collective under the organization of Ward’s non-profit. Today, this beloved pocket park is still loved and cared for by and in community. Largely stewarded by volunteer neighbors and Highland Park residents under the banner of La Culebra Action League, there’s puppet shows, live music, gardening, markets, and lots of love and care for maintaining this important community built green space.

      <image:title>Gatherings - LISTENING SESSION: Gregory Uhlmann’s ‘Extra Stars’ While Stargazing - Gregory Uhlmann is a guitarist, composer, and producer from Chicago living in Los Angeles. His musical palette embraces beautiful warble-y sounds, low fuzzy vibrations, and playful rhythms that overlap in surprising ways. His often-otherworldly guitar tones and syncopated picking style are immediately recognizable across a vast array of musical collaborations, and that distinction while maintaining a shapeshifting flexibility is no small feat.  Uhlmann’s early work as co-leader of LA indie experimental outfit Fell Runner established his presence on the West coast scene after relocating from Chicago, and his resume since includes stints as a regular recording/touring member of Perfume Genius, Hand Habits, and Anna Butterss’s backing band. Whether he’s contributing to the LA trance-jazz improvisation of SML, the progressive electro-acoustic chamber music of his trio with Josh Johnson and Sam Wilkes, or in the hushed melancholic rhythm machine of Duffy x Uhlmann (his duo with Meg Duffy of Hand Habits), it’s clear that Uhlmann is a lead asset in every collaboration.  His work as a solo artist ranges from cleverly arranged chamber-folk songwriting to beautifully abstract experimental jazz-informed instrumental compositions, and his latest album, Extra Stars, explores that latter territory to a deeper degree than ever before. This new work, his solo debut for International Anthem, pulls Uhlmann even further into the spotlight while showcasing his knack for directing the talent of his community of collaborators, establishing him as one of the most exciting emergent artists in modern music.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Resonance: A Yoga &amp;amp; Sound Journey with Qur’an Shaheed &amp;amp; Colloboh - Founded in opposition to overdevelopment and the expansion of the 710 Freeway, Arlington Garden is Pasadena's only dedicated public garden. Since breaking ground 20 years ago, this three-acre urban oasis has blossomed into a vibrant wildlife habitat for Pasadena's native flora and fauna, an outdoor classroom, and the host to the only remaining orange grove along historic Orange Grove Boulevard. We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Saul Williams meets Carlos Niño &amp;amp; Friends at The World Stage - Saul Williams came to worldwide attention as a writer and performer with his debut film, SLAM (dir. Marc Levin) winning Sundance's Grand Jury Prize and Cannes Camera D'Or in 1998, introducing the world to the phenomenon of slam poetry competitions and Saul as a global ambassador of modern poetry.  As a musician, Saul's albums have featured genre-bending collaborations with producers, such as Rick Rubin and Trent Reznor, that helped usher in Brooklyn's Afro-Punk movement. Saul has also collaborated with “Contemporary Music” composers, writing the libretto for Ted Hearne's LA Philharmonic produced oratorio “PLACE” and two symphonies by the late Swiss composer, Thomas Kessler, based on two books of Saul's poetry, “,said the shotgun to the head.” and “The Dead Emcee Scrolls. Overall, Saul has released six studio albums and five books of poetry, translated into multiple languages. In 2022, Saul wrote, composed the soundtrack/score, and co-directed the science-fiction musical Neptune Frost, alongside his co-director and creative partner, Anisia Uzeyman. Neptune Frost made its world debut as part of Cannes Film Festival's “Director's Fortnight” and was selected by NYT's film critic A.O. Scott as the #2 film of the year. As an actor Saul has worked in theater, film and television. He was a series regular on the sitcom “Girlfriends.” He is the first African-American to win Best Actor in Africa's largest film festival FESPACO for his work in the Senegalese film TEY (“Aujourd'hui”) directed by Alain Gomis and his 2020 performance in “Akilla’s Escape” earned him a Canadian Screen Award nomination for Best Actor.  He was the lead in Broadway's first Hip Hop musical, “Holler If You Hear Me”, based on the lyrics of Tupac Shakur and directed by Kenny Leon. Saul also starred in the two final campaigns of Virgil Abloh for Louis Vuitton, appearing in “Peculiar Contrast, Perfect Light” (F/W 2021) and “Amen Break” (S/S 2022). Most recently, Saul appears as the preacher “Jedidiah Moore” in Ryan Coogler's “Sinners”. As a performer, Saul has toured in over forty countries, lectured in hundreds of universities, and served as a guest professor of poetry and performance at Stanford University. Saul holds a BA in Theater and Philosophy from Morehouse College and MFA in Acting from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Saul Williams meets Carlos Niño &amp;amp; Friends at The World Stage - The World Stage is an educational and performance art space in Leimert Park Village, the heart of Los Angeles’ African American cultural community. It was founded in 1989 by the late world-renowned master jazz drummer Billy Higgins and by poet and community arts activist Kamau Daáood, in an attempt to fill a cultural void in the L.A. community. Initially formed as a loose collective of artists and arts supporters, The World Stage has grown to assume a pioneering and pivotal role in South L.A.’s music and art landscape. The Stage’s mission is to secure, preserve and advance the position of African American music, literature and works in the oral tradition to a local, national and international audience. With a capacity of 100, The World Stage programs affordable weekly workshops in music and literary arts, and ticketed performances from a range of renowned artists. Through its weekly workshops, The World Stage provides the community with quality arts education and links youth with elders in the African American cultural tradition. Workshops are generally offered to the public for $5 but no one is turned away for lack of funds. Offerings include Monday’s Drum Workshop for children of all ages, Tuesday’s Jazz Vocal Workshop, Wednesday’s Anansi Writer’s Workshop, Thursday’s Women’s African Drum Circle and Jazz Jam Session, Saturday’s Jazz Workshop, and Sunday’s Woodwind Workshop and Vocal Jam Session.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Invocations: An Ecological Sound Workshop with Francesca Heart - Francesca Mariano (also known as Francesca Heart and Serpentine Dance) is a grammy-nominated artist working across sound, movement, installation, and somatic research. With volcanic and marine roots in Southern Italy, her practice emerges at as an interdisciplinary research on hydrofeminism, mythological acoustics, and landscape choreology. Her acclaimed albums Eurybia and Sphinx Nouvelle are released by US pioneering label Leaving Records and have received praise from Pitchfork, Vogue Italia, Bandcamp Daily, and others for their visionary fusion of ambient, ceremonial, and electronic forms. She investigates how bodies- human, more-than-human, geological- carry memory, myth, and transformation. Her work is driven by the belief that listening is a radical tool for reconfiguring our relationship with the earth and the cosmos. Through choreographic scores, sonic explorations, and performative installations, she mainly focuses on the Mediterranean as a resonant body, a space of stratified histories and post-human futures. Her approach to music is at once playful and research-focused, with a passion for cinematic textures inspired by 80s and 90s film composers such as Eric Serra, and 2000s’ video game sounds she used to play as a child with her brother.</image:title>

A phrase not only meant to evoke sheer madness or fright but a way of leaving behind what you or others thought you were for a brief or permanent transformation. joys themselves are a reminder of the all too brief nature of most good things and the reminder to savor those moments brought on by them.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - A Night for Stillness &amp;amp; Slowness | John Thayer, Dream Crease, j.o.y.s. - Heavy Manners is a lending library, gallery, and bookstore that seeks to provide a space for developing, sharing, and discussing artwork and creative practice. Because formal art education is increasingly becoming cost prohibitive and inaccessible, Heavy Manners hopes to be an alternative resource. Their collection focuses on self and independently published books, zines, and other media. Additionally, the library works directly with artists and small publishers, to make overlooked, out of print, and hard to find media accessible.  After signing up for one of our membership options, members receive a library card and are able to borrow books from the library. Visitors are welcome to browse or scan our collection during our open hours. In tandem with the mission of the lending library, Heavy Manners also presents events and gallery shows in their exhibit space, theater, and classroom. With these programs, they hope to create opportunities for budding artists to share their work and established artists to experiment with new projects.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - SUMMONING A New Moon with MMOONN: Odeya Nini, Nicolas Snyder, and Ben LumsDaine - For 20+ years the Audubon Center at Debs Park has been a beacon for how conservation organizations can work within our cities to cultivate a deeper relationship between people and place. Through monthly hikes, restoration days, bird walks, field trips, movie nights, community festivals, and hosting gatherings like these each and every month, the Audubon Center at Debs Park has played an essential role in building a more diverse and inclusive conservation movement here in Los Angeles. We’re so grateful for the humans of the Audubon Center, the advocacy that they champion in dialogue with local culture and native ecology, and it is an absolute honor to gather here together on the 3rd Saturday of (almost) every month.</image:title>

We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - LISTENING SESSION: Saul Williams meets Carlos Niño &amp;amp; Friends at TreePeople - Land Back! An unadulterated opening statement intoned by Saul Williams three times, as he joins Carlos Niño &amp; Friends in sound ceremony underneath oak and black walnut trees in Coldwater Canyon Park, Los Angeles, on December 18, 2024. The performance, which was organized by Noah Klein of Living Earth on the grounds of longstanding conservationist organization TreePeople, was the first of its kind for longtime friends and collaborators Williams and Niño. The two have been in contact since 1997 and have worked on a variety of projects together, but had never been moved to present in this way. For the occasion, Niño assembled and directed an ensemble of frequent collaborators including Nate Mercereau (Guitar Synthesizer, Live Sampling with Midi Guitar, Sample Sources), Aaron Shaw (Flute, Soprano Saxophone with Pedals, Tenor Saxophone), Andres Renteria (Bells, Congas, Egyptian Rattle Drum, Hand Drums, Percussion), Maia (Flute, Vibraphone, Voice), Francesca Heart (Computer, Conch Shell, Sound Design), and Kamasi Washington (Tenor Saxophone). Williams’ inspired poetics both fit seamlessly and guide clairvoyantly the electro-acoustic ecosystem created by Niño &amp; Friends – a constellation of deep connections and intersecting linkups from complementary sound makers. There’s the dialogue between not just Niño &amp; Williams but Niño and Renteria’s reciprocal percussions; the intergenerational woodwind counterpoint between Washington and Shaw; the hovering harmonics of Maia’s vibraphone in aerial resonance with Heart’s digital designs. Heart’s sounds also make a beautiful analogue to synth-guitarist Nate Mercereau, whose live sampling and manipulation techniques turn fleeting moments of sonic presence into musical architecture in real time. Deepening the dimensionality of this constellation, Mercereau and Niño are several years into a shared musical simpatico that has yielded dozens of powerful collaborations, making their particular interaction on this recording as spiritual and transcendent as it is subtle and implicit. And there is yet another connection to be highlighted still. Late in the set, Williams shares an extended reflection on the Dutch East India Trade Company, the indigenous Lenape people on the island of Manahatta, the origins of Wall Street, and a prayer for the end of empire as he incites an epic crescendo from the ensemble, swirling behind the twin winds of Shaw and Washington, spirited by his repeated call “I’ve seen enough.” The smoke has only begun to clear from this emotional apex as Williams passes the torch to poet Aja Monet, who arrests the atmosphere with a soft apocalyptic reading of a piece from her notebook, “The Water Is Rising.” As Monet finishes her poem and steps aside, Williams follows her foreboding words with a solemnly hopeful return – closing the ceremony with a parable about a firing squad, where one member's dilemma is a "system of belief" allowing for humanity in the heart of an oppressor.</image:title>

In April of 2017, it was a sunset trek to Sandstone Peak that transformed his life and motivated Justin to work towards building an inclusive and accessible outdoors community. Since then he’s launched a prolific outdoors podcast, has led dozens of hikes throughout Southern California, has completed Mt Baldy more than 20 times along with summiting Mt Whitney, Half Dome, Cactus to Clouds, and has been featured by the LA Times, Parks Project, and Cotopaxi. He aims to inspire, motivate, and elevate others to a higher state of well being through adventurous conversations and intentional outdoor experiences. Elevation is his new recreation.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Sunset at Sandstone Peak • Hiking To The Highest Point Of The Santa Monica Mtns - Born and raised in the Los Angeles Basin, Noah Klein has built their life exploring the sonic interconnectedness of all beings. Whether plants or people, deep time or shared space, they fundamentally seek to share stories of resilience and self-determination. A lifelong organizer of many community-minded projects, they co-steward Living Earth, host a seasonal show on dublab, occasionally tour with the band Mutual Benefit, and in 2022 received their California Naturalist certification in 2022. At this moment, they’re probably playing flute in your local park.

      <image:title>Gatherings - Sunset at Sandstone Peak • Hiking To The Highest Point Of The Santa Monica Mtns - Sandstone Peak is not made of sandstone, but is actually made out of an igneous rock or magmatic rock called andesite. Before the Santa Monica Mountains formed, most of the rock in the area was sedimentary in origin. That is to say they came from the land or the ocean, not from a volcano. Starting about 24 million years ago during the Oligocene, a geologic epoch, the Farallon Plate, an ancient oceanic plate, began to subduct beneath the North American Plate. This occurs when two tectonic plates meet at convergent boundaries. This process known as subduction was a catalyst in the driving force that created our mountains. As the volcanoes began to erupt, due to subduction, new land squeezed its way through the existing rock while at the same time uplifting the range to thousands of feet high. You can actually see the different eruption events and ancient lava flows as you make your way up to Sandstone Peak. Along the Mishe Mokwa Trail (White Man’s Trail) we’ll walk along the gaping chasm of Carlisle Canyon, stop for a long view of Balanced Rock teetering on the opposite cliffside, wander through Split Rock, and really get a feel for the eons of erosion to stretch across our footsteps. This hike travels through unceded lands of Chumash and Micqanaqa'n peoples. To learn more about the pictographs, trade routes, and stories of these lands we highly encourage visiting the Satwiwa Native American Indian Culture Center.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Friday Night Moonlight Hike with Steve Blum - Born in 1973 from the hopes and dreams of a teenager, TreePeople is now one of the largest environmental organizations headquartered in Southern California. They have inspired, engaged, and supported more than 3 million people to take action for our environment by planting and caring for more than 3 million trees in our local forests, mountains, parks, and our neighborhoods. Through on-the-ground research and educational programs, TreePeople shares knowledge with policymakers, students, educators, and communities around the world. After fires burn, TreePeople reforests. When schools are covered in concrete, TreePeople creates green schoolyards. When communities experience food insecurity, TreePeople distributes fruit trees. When California is drought-stricken, TreePeople designs solutions to capture rainwater. As the world faces increasing threats from a more hostile climate, TreePeople helps create actionable solutions.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - California Botanic Garden’s Luminaria Nights - David Moses is a multi-instrumentalist, improviser, and educator based in East Los Angeles. His music practice explores the intersection of experimentation and intuition, moving fluidly through open-source music software (Monome Norns), field recordings, live resampling, electroacoustic processing, and generative composition techniques. Shaped by Los Angeles’s vibrant experimental community—where jazz, ambient, and exploratory music freely overlap—David has become a frequent collaborator within the city’s improvised music scene. He performs solo and in various ad-hoc ensembles across Los Angeles and alongside his wife, artist Lani Trock, co-leads a community-oriented ensemble project Soft Future. Soft Future’s next performance will be at the Los Angeles Getty Museum in collaboration with musician and Ayurvedic practitioner Shelia Govinda.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Afternoon at the Audubon Center with Two Point (Sharada Shashidhar + Caleb Buchanan) - For 20+ years the Audubon Center at Debs Park has been a beacon for how conservation organizations can work within our cities to cultivate a deeper relationship between people and place. Through monthly hikes, restoration days, bird walks, field trips, movie nights, community festivals, and hosting gatherings like these each and every month, the Audubon Center at Debs Park has played an essential role in building a more diverse and inclusive conservation movement here in Los Angeles. We’re so grateful for the humans of the Audubon Center, the advocacy that they champion in dialogue with local culture and native ecology, and it is an absolute honor to gather here together on the 3rd Saturday of (almost) every month.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Resonance: A Yoga &amp;amp; Sound Journey with Qur’an Shaheed and Matthewdavid - Founded in opposition to overdevelopment and the expansion of the 710 Freeway, Arlington Garden is Pasadena's only dedicated public garden. Since breaking ground 20 years ago, this three-acre urban oasis has blossomed into a vibrant wildlife habitat for Pasadena's native flora and fauna, an outdoor classroom, and the host to the only remaining orange grove along historic Orange Grove Boulevard. We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Live At The LA County Jail with Def Sound - Built in 1963, LA County’s Men’s Central Jail is one of the oldest county jails in California. The Men's Central Jail is considered one of the largest jails in the world and in May 2013, along with the adjacent Twin Towers Correctional Facility, MCJ has been called a "modern-day medieval dungeon" by the ACLU of Southern California. On July 7, 2020, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors voted 4–0 to pursue a plan to close the Men's Central Jail within 12 months. In voting to eventually close the (then) 57-year-old facility, county supervisors said they wanted to focus on community-based programs to treat mental health challenges of those entering and exiting the jail system administered by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. Check in with LAist and FUSE to learn more about Care First, Jail Last and the Central Jail closure.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Surrounded By Plants with andrew cs, cashin &amp;amp; colmkil - Plant Material is an ecologically and aesthetically opinionated store selling horticulture, garden tools and art objects of consequence.  They believe that as individuals, families and communities, the time has come for us to begin tending our gardens and our city with a new ethic and reinvigorated botanical point of view.  You know how most nurseries kind of just sell everything? Plant Material is not like that. PM’s horticultural offerings are composed of a mix of natives, species wholly regionally appropriate to Southern California, and non-GMO edibles.  No frivolous annuals, no twee succulents, never invasive species. In the belief that we need to contribute ecologically when able, let's invest in a perenially blooming future together.    In addition to more-than-human comrades, PM offers garden tools that are sustainably minded, ruged, and sourced from manufacturers who value labor and craft. They also dabble in art objects and ongoing creative collaborations that mine the endless depth and meaning of what a garden is. Current pieces can be found in their garden shops from our friends Sarah Rara (of Lucky Dragons) and Chris Kallmyer.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Listen To Music Indoors In A Cozy Loft Under The Rain - Los Angeles State Historic Park (LASHP) is one of our city’s most high-profile and politically-charged green spaces.  The site of the former Southern Pacific Railyard, “Not A Cornfield”, and LA’s original aqueduct the Zanja Madre, the purchase of these 34 acres has been one of the most significant environmental justice victories in Los Angeles and a testament to the power of grassroots activism. LASHP is considered the leading-edge of California State Parks’ efforts to ensure parklands and gathering space for some of the most underserved, park-poor communities in the heart of the nation’s second largest city.  Since acquiring the land in 2001, State Parks engaged the local community in an extensive series of 65+ public meetings and planning workshops during which they shared their visions for the park’s future. The State worked hand in hand with surrounding communities to develop Los Angeles State Historic Park as a space for civic dialogue, cultural celebration and historic remembrance. This Park is Made by People, made by our friend Rosten Woo, is a monument to the civic labor that willed the Los Angeles State Historic Park into being. It is intended to make a public record of the herculean, but often forgotten, work that goes into changing the public idea of what land could be.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Resonance: A Yoga &amp;amp; Sound Journey - Founded in opposition to overdevelopment and the expansion of the 710 Freeway, Arlington Garden is Pasadena's only dedicated public garden.

We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Friday Night Moonlight Hike with Isaac Sherman - Born in 1973 from the hopes and dreams of a teenager, TreePeople is now one of the largest environmental organizations headquartered in Southern California. They have inspired, engaged, and supported more than 3 million people to take action for our environment by planting and caring for more than 3 million trees in our local forests, mountains, parks, and our neighborhoods. Through on-the-ground research and educational programs, TreePeople shares knowledge with policymakers, students, educators, and communities around the world. After fires burn, TreePeople reforests. When schools are covered in concrete, TreePeople creates green schoolyards. When communities experience food insecurity, TreePeople distributes fruit trees. When California is drought-stricken, TreePeople designs solutions to capture rainwater. As the world faces increasing threats from a more hostile climate, TreePeople helps create actionable solutions.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Afternoon at the Audubon Center with Sarah Safaie &amp;amp; Ben Varian - For 20+ years the Audubon Center at Debs Park has been a beacon for how conservation organizations can work within our cities to cultivate a deeper relationship between people and place. Through monthly hikes, restoration days, bird walks, field trips, movie nights, community festivals, and hosting gatherings like these each and every month, the Audubon Center at Debs Park has played an essential role in building a more diverse and inclusive conservation movement here in Los Angeles. We’re so grateful for the humans of the Audubon Center, the advocacy that they champion in dialogue with local culture and native ecology, and it is an absolute honor to gather here together on the 3rd Saturday of (almost) every month.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Saul Williams meets Carlos Niño &amp;amp; Friends at The World Stage - Saul Williams came to worldwide attention as a writer and performer with his debut film, SLAM (dir. Marc Levin) winning Sundance's Grand Jury Prize and Cannes Camera D'Or in 1998, introducing the world to the phenomenon of slam poetry competitions and Saul as a global ambassador of modern poetry.  As a musician, Saul's albums have featured genre-bending collaborations with producers, such as Rick Rubin and Trent Reznor, that helped usher in Brooklyn's Afro-Punk movement. Saul has also collaborated with “Contemporary Music” composers, writing the libretto for Ted Hearne's LA Philharmonic produced oratorio “PLACE” and two symphonies by the late Swiss composer, Thomas Kessler, based on two books of Saul's poetry, “,said the shotgun to the head.” and “The Dead Emcee Scrolls. Overall, Saul has released six studio albums and five books of poetry, translated into multiple languages. In 2022, Saul wrote, composed the soundtrack/score, and co-directed the science-fiction musical Neptune Frost, alongside his co-director and creative partner, Anisia Uzeyman. Neptune Frost made its world debut as part of Cannes Film Festival's “Director's Fortnight” and was selected by NYT's film critic A.O. Scott as the #2 film of the year. As an actor Saul has worked in theater, film and television. He was a series regular on the sitcom “Girlfriends.” He is the first African-American to win Best Actor in Africa's largest film festival FESPACO for his work in the Senegalese film TEY (“Aujourd'hui”) directed by Alain Gomis and his 2020 performance in “Akilla’s Escape” earned him a Canadian Screen Award nomination for Best Actor.  He was the lead in Broadway's first Hip Hop musical, “Holler If You Hear Me”, based on the lyrics of Tupac Shakur and directed by Kenny Leon. Saul also starred in the two final campaigns of Virgil Abloh for Louis Vuitton, appearing in “Peculiar Contrast, Perfect Light” (F/W 2021) and “Amen Break” (S/S 2022). Most recently, Saul appears as the preacher “Jedidiah Moore” in Ryan Coogler's “Sinners”. As a performer, Saul has toured in over forty countries, lectured in hundreds of universities, and served as a guest professor of poetry and performance at Stanford University. Saul holds a BA in Theater and Philosophy from Morehouse College and MFA in Acting from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Saul Williams meets Carlos Niño &amp;amp; Friends at The World Stage - The World Stage is an educational and performance art space in Leimert Park Village, the heart of Los Angeles’ African American cultural community. It was founded in 1989 by the late world-renowned master jazz drummer Billy Higgins and by poet and community arts activist Kamau Daáood, in an attempt to fill a cultural void in the L.A. community. Initially formed as a loose collective of artists and arts supporters, The World Stage has grown to assume a pioneering and pivotal role in South L.A.’s music and art landscape. The Stage’s mission is to secure, preserve and advance the position of African American music, literature and works in the oral tradition to a local, national and international audience. With a capacity of 100, The World Stage programs affordable weekly workshops in music and literary arts, and ticketed performances from a range of renowned artists. Through its weekly workshops, The World Stage provides the community with quality arts education and links youth with elders in the African American cultural tradition. Workshops are generally offered to the public for $5 but no one is turned away for lack of funds. Offerings include Monday’s Drum Workshop for children of all ages, Tuesday’s Jazz Vocal Workshop, Wednesday’s Anansi Writer’s Workshop, Thursday’s Women’s African Drum Circle and Jazz Jam Session, Saturday’s Jazz Workshop, and Sunday’s Woodwind Workshop and Vocal Jam Session.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Resonance: A Yoga &amp;amp; Sound Journey - Founded in opposition to overdevelopment and the expansion of the 710 Freeway, Arlington Garden is Pasadena's only dedicated public garden. Since breaking ground 20 years ago, this three-acre urban oasis has blossomed into a vibrant wildlife habitat for Pasadena's native flora and fauna, an outdoor classroom, and the host to the only remaining orange grove along historic Orange Grove Boulevard. We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

The resort was popular until 1974, when Springer was removed bodily from the site by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), which claimed that he had never received official title to the land. In 1976, the California State University system took over the resort, turning it into a desert ecology study center called The Desert Studies Center (DSC). photo from The Center for Land Use Interpretation</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - The Cortège: Low Leaf - Low Leaf approaches her performance in The Cortège's Beyond as a profound ceremonial offering, recognizing that grief itself is a privilege when so many lack the capacity, space, or luxury to fully mourn while survival remains uncertain. Through her signature blend of ethereal vocals, live looping, and ambient harp textures, Low Leaf will alchemize collective sorrow into transformative musical ceremony, honoring both her Filipino ancestors and the indigenous ancestors of the land where this ritual takes place. Understanding that ceremony activates a portal where ordinary time and space are transcended, she creates a sacred liminal bridge from the world we once knew into Earth's organic timeline, using her instruments as ceremonial tools to guide participants through this profound transition.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - The Cortège: Carlos Niño &amp;amp; Friends - Carlos Niño - "the Spiritual Force Behind LA's Eclectic Music Scene" (NY Times) - is curating a special ensemble for The Cortège dedicated to themes of eternal life, death and transformation. A prolific producer of over 150 albums, including André 3000's New Blue Sun, Niño seeks to showcase a unique performance from Mexican composer / multi-Instrumentalist Luis Pérez Ixoneztli, who has spent over 50 years researching and preserving ancient Mesoamerican musical instruments and indigenous Mexican traditions. Ixoneztli will play from his collection of wind and percussion artifacts and personal recreations to weave mythology, vision, and spiritual traditions into The Cortège's fabric, approaching what Niño has referred to as “Going Home” - that energy of transition that he dedicated to an album in 2017.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - TRANSA: A Celebration - The TRANSA album was conceived in 2021 by producer Dust Reid and artist-activist Massima Bell, and partly inspired by the late artist SOPHIE. It presents a spiritual and emotional journey with contributions from over 100 artists, including Sade (with “Young Lion” dedicated to her trans son), Sam Smith, Moses Sumney, Hunter Schafer, Beverly Glenn-Copeland, and André 3000, whose contribution is a 26-minute ambient work. “Trans people have always existed, known by many names across time and culture, often as spiritual healers and leaders,” said Massima Bell, TRANSA co-producer. “In a world still grappling with profound challenges, our journeys — and those of all oppressed peoples — carry blueprints for possibility. TRANSA offers a glimpse of our collective liberation and the light that lives in all of us.”</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Resonance: A Yoga &amp;amp; Sound Journey - Founded in opposition to overdevelopment and the expansion of the 710 Freeway, Arlington Garden is Pasadena's only dedicated public garden. Since breaking ground 20 years ago, this three-acre urban oasis has blossomed into a vibrant wildlife habitat for Pasadena's native flora and fauna, an outdoor classroom, and the host to the only remaining orange grove along historic Orange Grove Boulevard. We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - A Tribute To The Life &amp;amp; Devotional Music&amp;nbsp;Of Swamini Turiyasangitananda - Raised on the Sai Anantam Ashram, Surya Botofasina was mentored from an early age by the legendary harpist, pianist and spiritual leader Turiyasangitananda. His musical, personal and spiritual growth within the Ashram remains the central reference point in his life. ‘The very core of my being resides and has been cultivated at the sacred grounds of Sai Anantam Ashram,’ he says today. ‘Each value, aspect, place, memory, person, quality, feeling, bhajan, Satsang, energetic representation collectively composes this person.’ As his most recent album’s title indicates, he was and is an ‘Ashram Sun’, and the strong feminine presence of Swamini Turiyasangitananda and his mother Radha infuses how he hears and offers music. Surya has collaborated with friends and luminaries like Georgia Anne Muldrow, André 3000, Carlos Niño, Nate Mercereau, Shabaka, Saul Williams, Marshall Allen, and Angel Bat Dawid. His work as the Music Director of the Sai Anantam Ashram Singers has seen him tour internationally to honor the devotional music of Swamini Turiyasangitananda.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Afternoon at the Audubon Center with Nicolas Maldonado &amp;amp; David Moses - For 20+ years the Audubon Center at Debs Park has been a beacon for how conservation organizations can work within our cities to cultivate a deeper relationship between people and place. Through monthly hikes, restoration days, bird walks, field trips, movie nights, community festivals, and hosting gatherings like these each and every month, the Audubon Center at Debs Park has played an essential role in building a more diverse and inclusive conservation movement here in Los Angeles. We’re so grateful for the humans of the Audubon Center, the advocacy that they champion in dialogue with local culture and native ecology, and it is an absolute honor to gather here together on the 3rd Saturday of (almost) every month.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Resonance: A Yoga &amp;amp; Sound Journey - Founded in opposition to overdevelopment and the expansion of the 710 Freeway, Arlington Garden is Pasadena's only dedicated public garden. Since breaking ground 20 years ago, this three-acre urban oasis has blossomed into a vibrant wildlife habitat for Pasadena's native flora and fauna, an outdoor classroom, and the host to the only remaining orange grove along historic Orange Grove Boulevard. We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - In The Library with Lia Kohl &amp;amp; Zander Raymond - The Philosophical Research Society is a nonprofit institution founded in 1934 by scholar and prolific author Manly Palmer Hall as a repository of multicultural wisdom sources and a center of learning. With a campus designed by architect Robert Stacy-Judd and later designated a historical-cultural site by the city of Los Angeles, PRS is “dedicated to the ensoulment of all arts, sciences, and crafts.” Since 1934, PRS has continually offered public programs for all lovers of wisdom on a vast array of topics presented by luminary speakers. The campus includes an auditorium, bookstore, lecture room, library, and gallery, all of which facilitate a full calendar of events. The PRS School fosters a worldwide community of seekers through its courses, and the Society continues to issue new editions and anthologies of Manly Hall’s work. PRS was created to aid those seeking wisdom in the troubled time of its inception as well as those who would continue seeking practical and profound wisdom in the future. Through depression, wars, and other public crises, PRS has sought to preserve and grow our personal connection, so that, as Mr. Hall notes, “With faith, honesty, and common sense we can build a better world than any we have known.”</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Sunset On The LA River with Walt McClements - Walt McClements is an accordionist, multi-instrumentalist and composer based in Los Angeles. His solo compositions focus on processed accordion, creating patient and emotional meditations that nod to drone and ambient music. His debut record, “A Hole in the Fence” was released in 2021 on American Dreams, and utilized a minimal palette of accordions processed through pedals to create glacial soundscapes and odes to hidden worlds. On his latest record, and first for Western Vinyl, “On a Painted Ocean”, he expands his sonic tools to include lush synths, droning pipe organs, and spirited horns, creating a vibrant journey from solitary stillness to community exuberance. The record also follows last year’s “Rain on the Road”, a collaborative album with harpist Mary Lattimore, released on Thrill Jockey.   Prior to releasing music under his own name, McClements had been a touring member of Weyes Blood, Hurray for the Riff Raff, and Dark Dark Dark, as well as leading New Orleans art-punk brass ensemble Why Are We Building Such A Big Ship? and one man band Lonesome Leash.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Saul Williams meets Carlos Niño &amp;amp; Friends At TreePeople - Born in 1973 from the hopes and dreams of a teenager, TreePeople is now one of the largest environmental organizations headquartered in Southern California. They have inspired, engaged, and supported more than 3 million people to take action for our environment by planting and caring for more than 3 million trees in our local forests, mountains, parks, and our neighborhoods. Through on-the-ground research and educational programs, TreePeople shares knowledge with policymakers, students, educators, and communities around the world. After fires burn, TreePeople reforests. When schools are covered in concrete, TreePeople creates green schoolyards. When communities experience food insecurity, TreePeople distributes fruit trees. When California is drought-stricken, TreePeople designs solutions to capture rainwater. As the world faces increasing threats from a more hostile climate, TreePeople helps create actionable solutions.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - DISINIBLUD ALBUM RELEASE with Rachika Nayar &amp;amp; Nina Keith &amp;amp; Geotic - Disiniblud, the thrilling new collaborative album project from the composers/producers/multi-instrumentalists Rachika Nayar and Nina Keith. Rachika and Nina meet on complementary but seemingly disparate musical grounds. On her 2022 breakout LP Heaven Come Crashing, Rachika pushed her ambient guitar roots into passionate new terrain—where maximalist synths, sub-bass, and Amen breaks surged with cataclysmic longing and aching vulnerability. Her distinct fusion of post-rock and electronica earned her accolades as Pitchfork's Best New Music, on several best of the year lists (The New York Times, Stereogum, Fader, GQ, Bandcamp, etc), and as the opening act on tour with M83. Nina, meanwhile, is best known for her self-trained approach to composition, as evident on her 2019 debut MARANASATI 19111 and its delicate medley of cello, piano, clarinet, and flute, used to explore a personal history marked by community tragedy and paranormal incidents. On Disiniblud, the two’s self-described “wordless conversation” orbits such themes as mortality, reinvention through destruction, and sublimating fractured histories into music—all resulting in a work that suggests sweeping transformation can come from embracing old wounds with childlike wonder. Nina envisions this as she and Rachika's younger selves packing a satchel, holding hands, and daring one another to run away into a place of "wounds and wonder," only to discover an unforeseeable magic in an amalgam of post-rock, glitchy indie electronica, neo-classical, and pop genres in this co-created realm. Disiniblud features guest appearances from Julianna Barwick, Tujiko Noriko, Cassandra Croft, ASPIDISTRAFLY, Katie Dey, June McDoom and Ponytail's Willy Siegel.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Karaoke Against Repression - Solarc was born from two friends in the LA arts community who bonded over a batch of mead, which they brewed while listening to Gregorian chant in the companies current headquarters, a barn like garage in Highland Park. After a few years of obsessively home brewing all sorts of magical potions, they decided to take it to the next level andbegan Solarc in early 2015 as nomadic brewers with a dream of growing to eventually open a community space that could house a number of fermented experiments and performance art events. Every aspect of Solarc is art, from designing their labels, recipes and curating daily events to finding zen like fluxus meaning in the minimalist physical labor required to mass produce…things……… They are constantly aiming to expand their minds and palates and invite you to join ~</image:title>

Since breaking ground 20 years ago, this three-acre urban oasis has blossomed into a vibrant wildlife habitat for Pasadena's native flora and fauna, an outdoor classroom, and the host to the only remaining orange grove along historic Orange Grove Boulevard. We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Afternoon at the Audubon Center with Annabelle Freedman - Annabelle Freedman is an ecstatic celebration of all things interdependence. When they’re not writing music, they’re teaching, and when they’re not teaching, they’re recording in friend’s ensembles, and when they’re not to be found, they’re usually masked up fighting for collective liberation in a society that does all it can to tear us down. Through expressive vocals, violin, guitar, and anything else Annabelle &amp; friends can get their hands on, their music is a journey best shared in community.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Afternoon at the Audubon Center with Annabelle Freedman - For 20+ years the Audubon Center at Debs Park has been a beacon for how conservation organizations can work within our cities to cultivate a deeper relationship between people and place. Through monthly hikes, restoration days, bird walks, field trips, movie nights, community festivals, and hosting gatherings like these each and every month, the Audubon Center at Debs Park has played an essential role in building a more diverse and inclusive conservation movement here in Los Angeles. We’re so grateful for the humans of the Audubon Center, the advocacy that they champion in dialogue with local culture and native ecology, and it is an absolute honor to gather here together on the 3rd Saturday of (almost) every month.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Friday Night Moonlight Hike with David Franklin Courtright - David Franklin Courtright is an LA-based singer, songwriter, musician, poet, writer, and baker. In 2009, David began writing and recording under the moniker Suno Deko, which was the name he attached to early demos while living in New Delhi, India. For this release, David is stepping away from that project and releasing music under his given name. The reasons for this are many, but the main impetus was a desire to reach new levels of vulnerability and authenticity in his work—to be as sincere as possible. To do that he felt that a nom de plume stood in the way of that desire for connection and expression. In his striving for greater intimacy in the work, with the listeners and in the world, he felt it necessary that it come directly from him, no filter. While making music under Suno Deko, David had the chance to tour Europe with Wye Oak and Angel Olsen, and has toured and played shows with Hundred Waters, Mitski, Moses Sumney, How to Dress Well, and Julianna Barwick. In 2014, he played the inaugural FORM: Arcosanti festival in Arizona. He has collaborated with Alex Somers, Chrome Sparks, Nicole Miglis (Hundred Waters), and more.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - In An Empty Water Tower with Vocalist Odeya Nini (cancelled due to closure) - Using the body as a conduit for a flow of sound that calls out and calls upon with desire, Odeya Nini amplifies resonance, pure expression, and the dynamic dance of vocal energy. Both improvised and composed, Odeya will perform and project her voice in an invitation to join her in this sonic journey. Odeya Nini is a Los Angeles based interdisciplinary vocalist, composer, vocal embodiment coach, and sound meditation practitioner. Her solo vocal work extends the dimension and expression of the voice and body, creating a sonic and physical panorama of silence to noise and tenderness to grandeur. She has performed internationally from concert halls to caves and is a member of the Grammy nominated ensemble Wild Up.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Julius Smack’s STARLIGHT ALBUM RELEASE CELEBRATION - Sehseiyah is the solo avant industrial-pop project and alias for Los Angeles-based visual, recording, and performance artist Sepehr Mashiahof (fka The Bedroom Witch).  After releasing an expansive discography of five LPs and four EPs as the Bedroom Witch, she announced the departure from her decade-long moniker in June 2024. Formed through an abstraction of letters taken from the artist’s first and last name, Sehseiyah presents in this refined era of artistry as an ever-evolving enigma.  Alluring and at times frightening, Sehseiyah’s multi-range vocals are suspended in dark atmospheric sonic worlds and eviscerated by catchy percussive clangs and distorted torrential synth textures.  Mashiahof mythologizes Sehseiyah’s compositions as a haunting, cinematic soundtrack that accompanies a melancholic siren lost in a cavernous industrial rave.  Through the fog of this new character arc, Sehseiyah, as the name itself evokes, ascends like an angel. Photo by Gabriel Gamboa</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - ON AIR with elijah jamal asani &amp;amp; Ben Seretan - elijah jamal asani would like to extend an invitation to slow down. To linger a little longer. To follow the wind’s lulling whisper, and let your gaze discern where the land meets the clouded horizon.  Documenting time spent in the Grand Canyon as an artist in residence, asani collected sounds (“the melody that the bottom layer of the canyon walls and the river played for each other”) from the environment with reverence, to place nature at the forefront of his celestial musings.  The finished work for asani is "an audio journal comprised of the sounds &amp; sentiments captured on that fortyfourth night inside of the canyon; An echo of the softness etched upon those muav stones; an aide-memoire on the long-lost creation story between the river, the desert floor, &amp; all the elements in between that remain intertwined for as long as they decide, forming what we call the grand canyon.”  Blending intuition with intention in a delicately woven collage of guitar, field recordings, percussion, piano, and zither, ,,, as long as i long to memorise your sky ,,, is a vivid stroke of abstract romanticism patiently wandering through ethereal ambient compositions. It’s an engaging use of space devoid of linear time, fluid and flowing, with ripples of honeyed instrumentals and new age invocations. Keys buoyed by long tails of delay, awash in a sepia tinged nostalgia, everything passed through an otherworldly texture. elijah jamal asani is an anti-discilplinary nigerian-american artist bred in chicago &amp; based near the river wimahl. as a multi-instrumentalist ,, he navigates soft nuances through new colours &amp; infinite ((sweet)) everythings.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - ON AIR with elijah jamal asani &amp;amp; Ben Seretan - In 2014 some shirtless guy appeared on the cover of an LP with the phrase “Ecstatic Joy” tattooed on his chest. So arrived Ben Seretan of New York City, monastic and multivalent, hollering over crash cymbals, building impossible, towering clouds of drones, and playing the guitar like his life depended on it, smiling in the throes all the while. His catalog is full of delightfully hard lefts - there’s the twangy excesses of 2016’s Bowl of Plums, the 24-hour-long album of pure heavenly drone My Life’s Work from 2018, and then in 2020 Youth Pastoral, an album of songs about breaking up and breaking up with God caught wider attention, getting named one of the best of the year by Pitchfork. Naturally Cicada Waves, his following record released by NNA Tapes, is an outlandishly serene 53-minute collection of instrumental solo piano recordings. Capable of both terrifying crescendos and alarming tenderness, Seretan flies as a rare bird does - spot him through the binoculars if you can.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Tuesday Morning Garden Club - Founded in opposition to overdevelopment and the expansion of the 710 Freeway, Arlington Garden is Pasadena's only dedicated public garden. Since breaking ground 20 years ago, this three-acre urban oasis has blossomed into a vibrant wildlife habitat for Pasadena's native flora and fauna, an outdoor classroom, and the host to the only remaining orange grove along historic Orange Grove Boulevard. We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Serenading The Solstice with Squirrel Flower, Free Range, and Al Menne - Free Range, the project of Chicago-based musician Sofia Jensen (they/she), shares their new record Lost &amp; Found this spring. Lost &amp; Found is about the logical next step of trying to feel like an adult. Much of the album stems from the experiences of 21-year-old Jensen, who formed Free Range when they were 15, moving out from their parents’ house and expanding their world in the Chicago music scene. Amid these changes, Jensen experienced feelings common in one’s early twenties but pervasive throughout adulthood: striving for connection even when you’re surrounded by people, and struggling to be emotionally open.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Serenading The Solstice with Squirrel Flower, Free Range, and Al Menne - Al Menne came up in the music scene as the lead singer of Seattle-based rock band Great Grandpa. In this outfit, Menne’s remarkable voice was on full display, despite not being the primary songwriter. When Great Grandpa took a break in 2019 due to various life circumstances, Menne was free to explore new musical pockets and step into their own as a songwriter, which precipitated a move from their lifelong home in Seattle to Los Angeles in 2021. There, they connected with an impressive cast of collaborators and friends that helped bring their solo record Freak Accident to life, including producer Christian Lee Hutson, engineer and mixer Melina Duterte (Jay Som), and guitarist Meg Duffy (Hand Habits). Menne’s songs are filled with clever melodies and honeyed, homespun rock arrangements that showcase their taut songwriting. They manage to collapse a maze of gnarled emotions into clear, direct, and inviting pathways, often using humor as an access point to something more profound.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Serenading The Solstice with Squirrel Flower, Free Range, and Al Menne - For 20+ years the Audubon Center at Debs Park has been a beacon for how conservation organizations can work within our cities to cultivate a deeper relationship between people and place. Through monthly hikes, restoration days, bird walks, field trips, movie nights, community festivals, and hosting gatherings like ours each and every month, our local Audubon Center has played an essential role in building a diverse and inclusive conservation movement here in Los Angeles. We’re so grateful for the humans of the Center, the advocacy that they champion, and it’s an honor to work in conversation.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Friday Night Moonlight Hike with Hana Stretton - Hana Stretton is an accomplished Australian-British multi-instrumentalist, songwriter &amp; producer. Born and raised on a farm in New South Wales, Hana’s early life was steeped in natural beauty and isolation, which has become the influence for much of her music. Her work reflects a deep connection to her roots. Hana made her debut record, Soon, outside, in still moments after fires and wild storms had raged through her home in the Australian bush. Completely isolated with just her beloved cows and a few instruments, recording music became a way to pass the hours. The album was self-released in January 2023, with a vinyl run by boutique Australian label brierfield flood press. The following year, P.W. Elverum &amp; Sun (the private press of Phil Elvrum aka Mount Eerie) re-issued a special edition vinyl, selling out almost instantly. Upon release, Elverum explained his admiration for Hana’s music: “I hear an artist who has entered completely into the stream where creation originates […] Hana Stretton has truly recorded the deep flourishing sound of a quiet listening mind in full blossom.”</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Afternoon at the Audubon Center with Shannon Lay &amp;amp; Buddy Hollywood - Shannon Lay’s music is shored by radical empathy. After 15 years of writing, recording and performing her singularly gentle songs in venues around the world, the self-taught singer-songwriter is most concerned with how her music may help people in emotional and spiritual need. In a world of persistent change, Lay’s goal is to have concentrations of love and energy in her work that double as a helping hand or a voice whispering “everything is going to be ok.” The singer’s abiding belief is that immense change also means invaluable transformation and permanent relief. Intention is her North Star.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Afternoon at the Audubon Center with Shannon Lay &amp;amp; Buddy Hollywood - For 20+ years the Audubon Center at Debs Park has been a beacon for how conservation organizations can work within our cities to cultivate a deeper relationship between people and place. Through monthly hikes, restoration days, bird walks, field trips, movie nights, community festivals, and hosting gatherings like these each and every month, the Audubon Center at Debs Park has played an essential role in building a more diverse and inclusive conservation movement here in Los Angeles. We’re so grateful for the humans of the Audubon Center, the advocacy that they champion in dialogue with local culture and native ecology, and it is an absolute honor to gather here together on the 3rd Saturday of (almost) every month.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Resonance: A Yoga &amp;amp; Sound Journey - Founded in opposition to overdevelopment and the expansion of the 710 Freeway, Arlington Garden is Pasadena's only dedicated public garden. Since breaking ground 20 years ago, this three-acre urban oasis has blossomed into a vibrant wildlife habitat for Pasadena's native flora and fauna, an outdoor classroom, and the host to the only remaining orange grove along historic Orange Grove Boulevard. We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

Niño describes his "Carlos Niño &amp; Friends" sound as "Spiritual, Improvisational, Space Collage.” He qualifies: "Why Spiritual? Because there is always a spiritual intention and center, feeling and vibrational message in these records. Why Improvisational? Because I approach the making of this music without any preconceived structures, I just open up to what I am hearing and feeling and experiment until I get the pieces where I want them. The preparation and information in the improvisations is our whole lives. It's an open state of communication. Why Space Collage? Because it's all about relationship and perspective, interval, layering, moving, listening, and massaging the mixes…"</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Sunset On The LA River with Nina Sarnelle, Sharon Chohi Kim, and Lauren Bon - Lauren Bon is the director of Metabolic Studio, which navigates critical social and environmental issues by identifying systemic loopholes and developing emergent strategies for transformation. In 2005, her project Not A Cornfield transformed a vacant industrial 32-acre site in downtown Los Angeles into a living sculpture of corn, challenging land use policies and reimagining urban ecologies. Since then, Metabolic Studio has been working to reconnect this same floodplain with its historical water source (the Los Angeles River) through Bending the River, a 20-year project that circumvents conventional infrastructure to create alternative water systems. Bon’s work disrupts entrenched frameworks to generate new possibilities for land, water, and public agency. She has created major works for Desert X, Getty’s PST Festival, Honor Fraser Gallery, collateral events of the 59th edition of La Biennale di Venezia, LACMA, The Hammer Museum, The Exploratorium, DePaul Art Museum, The George Eastman Museum, MASS MoCA, The Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit (MoCAD), Les Rencontres d’Arles in France, and The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Chihei Hatakeyama: An Evening Of Ambient Music &amp;amp; Puppetry - Dustin Wong was born in Hawaii (1982) and grew up in Tokyo. He studied Film at the California College of Arts in Oakland (2001-2003) and sculpture and performance at the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore (2003-2005).

      <image:title>Gatherings - Chihei Hatakeyama: An Evening Of Ambient Music &amp;amp; Puppetry - The Bob Baker Marionette Theater a designated Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument &amp; the longest-running live puppet theatre in the United States. World renowned for their whimsical, handcrafted marionette performances, it’s a no-brainer that we’re simply obsessed. Bob Baker opened the original theater in 1963, in a former movie scenery shop, which housed this troupe of merry mischief makers for more than 50 year. In 2019 the theater relocated to Highland Park, into a former vaudeville &amp; silent film cinema, where our friends of BBMT continue to cultivate communities of joy and resilience every single day through performances, workshops, field trips, and even a show on dublab.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Resonance: A Yoga &amp;amp; Sound Journey - Founded in opposition to overdevelopment and the expansion of the 710 Freeway, Arlington Garden is Pasadena's only dedicated public garden. Since breaking ground 20 years ago, this three-acre urban oasis has blossomed into a vibrant wildlife habitat for Pasadena's native flora and fauna, an outdoor classroom, and the host to the only remaining orange grove along historic Orange Grove Boulevard. We gather at Arlington Garden monthly to reconnect with the natural world and with our community. Here, we are reminded of what's possible when we come together to self-determine our collective futures through art, ecology, and the simple act of gathering among friends. This garden stands as a testament to the power of grassroots action and the transformative potential of communal stewardship.</image:title>

Because I approach the making of this music without any preconceived structures, I just open up to what I am hearing and feeling and experiment until I get the pieces where I want them. The preparation and information in the improvisations is our whole lives. It's an open state of communication. Why Space Collage? Because it's all about relationship and perspective, interval, layering, moving, listening, and massaging the mixes…"</image:title>

Now having started a family, having lost biological and chosen parents, having struggled with aging and embodiment, having launched a record label and cultivated (against all the usual odds and incentives) an enriching and expanding community of musicians, artists, and enthusiasts, MatthewDavid’s fingernails are pretty damn caked with the soil of life.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Sunset at Sandstone Peak • Hiking The Tallest Peak of the Santa Monica Mtns - Having lived in Los Angeles for 15+ years and extensively experiencing the underground dance scene, entertainment industry, music + nightlife event circuit, and foodie scenes, the one thing that Justin never got to experience was the great outdoors in LA and Southern California. Justin stopped being a competitive B-Boy (aka breakdancer) and event producer in the street dance community for several years and the absence of dance in his life left a void in him. That very absence of dance led him eventually to trekking. Back in April 2017, it was a sunset trek on top of Sandstone Peak - the tallest mountain in all of the Santa Monica mountains (Malibu) that truly inspired him and opened up Justin’s mind to the powerful feeling that he wanted to explore everything the LA outdoors had to offer. It gave him the same feeling he first felt when he discovered dance. Since 2017 Justin has completed notable challenges and treks such as the #52HikeChallenge, #SixPackOfPeaks Challenge, Mount Whitney, Iron Mountain (Big Iron), San Gorgonio, Cactus to Clouds, Half Dome, and many more. Justin’s new journey inspired him to launch a new creative endeavor and passion project entitled “Just Trek” which is an Outdoor + Lifestyle Podcast, an LA based hiking group, and a blog. He aims to inspire, motivate, and elevate others to a higher state of well being through adventurous conversations, curated outdoor experiences, and engaging + informative online content. Elevation is his new recreation.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Sunset at Sandstone Peak • Hiking The Tallest Peak of the Santa Monica Mtns - Born and raised in Los Angeles, Noah Klein (Noah The Naturalist) has built their life exploring the sonic interconnectedness of all beings. Whether plants or people, deep time or shared space, they fundamentally seek to share stories of resilience and self-determination. A lifelong organizer of many community-minded projects (FMLY, Silent Barn, Printed Matter’s Art Book Fairs, Ambient Church, Floating), they most recently co-founded the worker-owned Living Earth arts organization, host a seasonal show on dublab documenting histories of interdependent arts spaces, run a small tape label, occasionally play in the band Mutual Benefit, received their California Naturalist certification in 2022, and are probably playing flute in your local park at this very moment. As a hiking enthusiast, Noah has summited Mount Whitney, backpacked through much of the Southern California wilderness, and is one of a handful to have thru hiked the entire Santa Monica Mountain Range.</image:title>

As prolific as they are autodidactic, Tiesenga’s creative practice includes not only composition, but print-making, pen and ink drawing, visual scores, and participation in numerous musical groups, including, notably, the Eastman Saxophone Project (“ESP”)—of which they are a founding member—and the grammy-nominated collective Wild Up. Across mediums, Tiesenga balances a rigorous attention to craft, procedure, and structure while simultaneously inaugurating the requisite space for spontaneity, play, and the stranger fruits of creative mysticism.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - PST: Art &amp;amp; Science Family Festival with Alexey Seliverstov - Experimental composer Alexey Seliverstov specializes in creating generative soundscapes using custom computer algorithms, an array of tape recorders, magnetic card readers, portable turntables, and reel-to-reel machines. Known for crafting artificial bird songs, Alexey blends these with field recordings from spring forests, flowering meadows, California creeks, high mountain areas, and generative synth parts in his sound collages. A pioneer in his field, Alexey has introduced techniques such as Extended Soundscapes and Flying Mics, which earned the admiration of Pete Townshend, co-founder and principal songwriter of The Who. This recognition led to a unique collaboration, with Townshend commissioning Alexey to compose one of 14 soundscapes for the upcoming art installation The Age of Anxiety. Alexey has also composed music for several films, most notably Inhale-Exhale, which won the Grand Jury Prize at the 2019 Shanghai Film Festival. Recently, he collaborated with Glass Animals to create an official performance remix of their song “Creatures in Heaven.”</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Mushroom Church with Modern Biology &amp;amp; Friends - Modern Biology has brought 'plant music' to the masses. Originally educated as a biologist, veteran musician Tarun Nayar brings his passion for nature and sound together in an ambient project that is organismic, immediate, uplifting, and deeply contextual. He uses modular synthesis, home built synthesizers and other analog equipment to improvise with the natural vibrations of a certain place and time - via plant bioelectricity, latent electromagnetic radiation, and even the earth’s resonant hum. Trained from childhood in Indian classical music, he uses the system of Indian raga to mold his musical choices for time of day and season. His performances are an effort to bring the listener into the present moment through vibration, space, and connection. His work has been viewed over 100 million times and amassed him over 1 million followers on social media, has been featured by The Guardian, BBC, Genius, Vice, The Verge, LA Times and Times of India among others, and one of his ambient works opens the new album, Moonchild Era, by Punjabi star Diljit Dosanjh. His recent albums have received editorial support on Spotify’s Music for Plants, Deep Listening, and Lava Lamp playlists. Recent performances include the Museum of Contemporary Art (LA), Art Basel (Miami), The Nobel Prize Museum (Stockholm) and the New York Botanical Garden. Tarun is passionate about protecting wild places and has committed the lion's share of the proceeds of this project to supporting the natural world.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Sacred Sites &amp;amp; Sounds: Honoring The Autumnal Equinox - Jessica Hundley is an author, filmmaker and journalist. She has written for the likes of Vogue, Rolling Stone, and The New York Times, and has authored books on artists including Dennis Hopper, David Lynch, and Gram Parsons. Hundley often explores the counterculture in her work, with a focus on metaphysics, psychedelia, and magic. Sacred Sites is a visual pilgrimage through holy mountains, great pyramids, and golden shrines in celebration of the ways we transform the world around us through ritual, creativity, and worship. Essays, interviews and more than 400 images explore spaces ranging from ancient temples to modern works of spatial art. Nature, art, beauty, these are the common elements found both within the places made sacred by our ancestors and in the multitude of environments where we strive to connect to source, and to ourselves. Tracing a hallowed route from rugged stone temples to transcendent works of modern architecture, the fifth volume in The Library of Esoterica celebrates the collective history of spaces made sacrosanct through human worship.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Sacred Sites &amp;amp; Sounds: Honoring The Autumnal Equinox - earthdance is a participatory, audiovisual installation, presented on this occasion with a live, improvised score by soft future. Viewers are invited to contribute through expressive movement and vocal harmonization. Alternatively, they may explore a quantum listening practice, as conceived of by Pauline Oliveros, reflecting on their relationship to the whole, contemplating their unique role &amp; purpose as cohabitants of our sacred, living earth.  Inspired by evolutionary biologist Elizabet Sahtouris’ book by the same name, earthdance invites us to honor the beauty of this world, deepening our awareness of the planet as a living ecosystem on an evolutionary journey, and us as interdependent, loving stewards. Through group somatic practices, we embody &amp; facilitate the shift; our evolution from humanity's competitive, self-oriented adolescence, into our maturation as a collaborative, ecologically-self-aware species, in conscious co-creation with the dance of life.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Deep Listening with Celia Hollander &amp;amp; Evan Shornstein - Celia Hollander is an LA based electronic music composer, producer, performer and artist. Her discography features releases on Leaving Records, Recital and Noumenal Loom and she has performed or installed works at venues including 2220 Arts &amp; Archives (LA), Grace Cathedral (SF), Basilica Hudson (NY), MOCA (LA) and more. She is currently an educator at the Herb Alpert School of Music at California Institute of the Arts and she has created original scores for film, TV, live performance and VR. From the perspective of people who categorize music by genres and types, Evan Shornstein, better-known under his production moniker Photay, has created lots of different kinds of sounds over the past decade. But if you’ve listened closely to Shornstein’s prodigious output, you know that separating and classifying the work is actually contrary to the energy of his music. That what on-the-surface may lazily appear as differences, is actually brought together by a shared sonic warmth, a hardware pastoralism at play. Whatever category he engages, Evan makes outdoor music under the spell of the elements, for the purpose of different human movements — some physical, some spiritual, some emotional, some philosophical.</image:title>

In 2018 Will stepped into his own as a composer, producer, multi- instrumentalist, and bandleader, with his debut album ‘Love is Abound’ followed up by ‘The Uncut Tree’ in 2021 — both rooted in a deep affinity for rhythm &amp; soul.  Having laid the foundation for possibilities, Will’s storied career as a collaborator make way for a new era, centering his voice in all of its fullness, in every capacity.   William strips down his songs to their essence — guitar &amp; voice, and joins Living Earth for an afternoon of acoustic soul.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Steve Roach: All Night Ambience In Joshua Tree - Visionary synthesist Steve Roach draws on the beauty and power of the Earth's landscapes to create lush, meditative soundscapes. Inspired by Klaus Schulze, Popul Vuh, and Tangerine Dream, Roach’s sound design has captivated listeners for decades. First emerging with the Berlin School-styled album Now in 1982, he came into his own with the 1984 minimalist epic Structures from Silence. Efforts such as 1988's equally heralded Dreamtime Return were directly inspired by desert life, incorporating field recordings and rhythms inspired by indigenous music traditions. Dark ambient works such as 1996's The Magnificent Void and 2000's Midnight Moon reflected the vast expanse of space. During the 2010s, he began building an extensive modular synthesizer/sequencer system, revisiting his Berlin School roots with albums such as 2020's album Tomorrow. Roach has maintained an impossibly prolific work rate throughout his career without sacrificing quality or craftsmanship, resulting in countless hours of truly sublime, otherworldly music.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Friday Night Moonlight Hike with Naima Bock - Born in Glastonbury to a Brazilian father and a Greek mother, Naima spent her early childhood in Brazil before eventually returning to England and various homes in South-East London. This heritage combines with more recent pursuits in Naima’s music; from the Brazilian standards that the family would listen to driving to the beach, to the European folk traditions she tapped into on her own, and the pursuits that interest her today – studies in archaeology, work as a gardener, and walking the world’s great trails – Naima’s music draws from family, the earth and the handing down of music through generations.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Afternoon at the Audubon | Duffy x Uhlmann - Blurring the limits between speed and slowness, Meg Duffy (guitar) and Gregory Uhlmann (guitar) communicate in velocities, underwriting each other’s peaks and flurries as they ache toward a mutual horizon. After playing in Perfume Genius and Hand Habits, Duffy and Uhlmann embarked on their first record together, Doubles. A testament to the wordlessness of their musical intimacy, Duffy and Uhlmann take up the guitar in order to make an imprint of the slowness and presence of their improvisational practice. They weave together a sonic meditation, embracing intuition and relying on trust.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Clockshop’s Listening By Moonrise | Low Leaf, Salenta + Topu - Salenta + Topu are collaborators and friends whose improvisatory compositions act like a document, a memory, sensitized by the depth of their bond and attunement to the human element of songwriting as ritual. Their album Moon Set, Moon Rise unfolds like a collection of vignettes: the resonant and wavering presence of a cello and keys that feel wistful and contemplative, and, at times, whirling and emergent are encased like amber in the 17 tracks.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Live on the LA River | Pride Month Barbie with DJ’s Rachika Nayar &amp;amp; Nina Keith - You can’t spell Pride Month Barbie without "Demon." As Libras, sluts, drama queens, and judgmental bitches, Pride Month Barbie (Josephine Shetty + Tyler Holmes) brings a sound and performance that will leave you feeling insecure, horny, and annoyed. Inspired by early 2000’s celebutante culture, the films of Gregg Araki, and acts like Handsome Furs, Yaz, Light Asylum, and New Order, PMB brings a dark sense of humor to a candied electronic gloss. Drawing from the indie pop culture of the ’80s, ’90s, and early aughts, PMB harkens the bittersweet, nostalgic purity of early synth titans, parodies the current zeitgeist, and imagines a glittering future encompassing the dystopic and utopic simultaneously.</image:title>

      <image:title>Gatherings - Tending The Garden | Lionmilk - Lionmilk, the primary solo project of Los Angeles musician/composer/producer, Moki Kawaguchi, for some time now, operates in an explicitly therapeutic mode. When discussing Lionmilk, Kawaguchi regularly foregrounds the absolute necessity of music-making as a form of self-care. First and foremost, he produces sounds and songs that provide him with some modicum of solace — “music to feel less whack to.” One gets the sense that he’d be doing exactly what he’s doing (exactly the way he’s doing it) even if he was the last man on earth. But he isn’t. And, in fact, one of Lionmilk’s primary concerns—evident across track titles, as well as the sung and spoken words that dot his releases—is community, or more specifically, what it means to exist and act in his community. How might we transmit our solitudes via music and to what extent? What does a shared solitude sound and feel like? And, in the context of this transaction, what novel relationships arise between the recording artist and the listener?</image:title>
