Join us for a meaningful event to support the Garden of Innocence, a non profit organization that provides dignified burials for abandoned and unidentified children in San Diego. Our intention for the evening is to honor the children of Garden of Innocence with Kundalini yoga movement, songs and chanting led by Lena Bravo, followed by a sound healing experience with Rebekah Finn. This event is for all yogis - seasoned and beginners! No experience necessary. Bring your yoga mat and settle in for an evening of community, connection and healing. 100% of the proceeds go to Garden of Innocence. Many of those who work in the death care industry are drawn to holistic ways of grieving and healing, and we're excited to share the 'other side' of our death care team at this event: Lena Bravo-Olsher is the owner of Bravo Family Mortuary along with her husband Steve. She's passionate about providing personalized, compassionate care to the families she serves as a Funeral Director and Embalmer. Lena is also a certified Kundalini Yoga Instructor and will be guiding us through movement, songs and chanting at this event. Rebekah Finn is a certified Death Doula and manages the team at Topkare Hospice. She's also incredibly musically gifted and will be leading our sound healing segment at this event which will include a wide range of instruments, drums and vocals. Penny Waugh is a Home Funeral Guide and founder of The Death Network, she's passionate about lifting the taboo around talking about death and is part of the movement to normalize the narrative about death and dying. Penny also works with Lena and Steve at Bravo Family Mortuary as a Funeral Arranger. We hope to see you there!

Time is of the essence for a Brazilian neuroscientist who wants to study whale and dolphin brains before the brains decompose in the heat.

From gallerist Michael James Armstrong: I’m excited to be showing a new site specific projection by Phil Beaumont. I can’t remember when I first met Phil. It seems he, along with his wife Yuko, have been staples in the San Diego art scene for as long as I’ve lived here. They are routinely some of the most dedicated supporters of local artists and have acquired a well curated collection. Phil is also a talented musician and singer for the band The Color Forty Nine and until recently was the principal at The Museum School for many years. About the exhibition: Phils new body of work is a series of iPhone videos shot in portrait orientation. Varied in subject matter, each video has an overarching theme of quiet solitude and subtle movement that sometimes borders on near stillness. If patient, the viewer is rewarded with an ethereal state of calm. The piece Furano Hotel is a site specific projection that is perfectly situated within Ice Gallery. We hope to see you at the opening on Saturday February 10th from 5-8pm. If you can’t make the opening, the gallery will be open to the public Tuesday – Friday 11-4.
