Sage Cacao, a NY-based ceremonial cacao company, will host a full-moon cacao ceremony and sound bath at Pelham Art Center on October 9, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., inside the Ultralight Beam exhibition.
Drink chocolate in its most wholesome, native form. Ceremonial cacao is meant to benefit the body and mind: opening the heart and energizing the spirit. Attendees will learn about cacao as a traditional plant medicine and spiritual plant—originating in Meso- and South America, and then experience a guided ceremony with Chynna Dee Andrada, Holistic Nurse and founder of Sage Cacao. For information and to learn more, go to pelhamartcenter.org.
POP TORCH: LIVE CONCERT
This show, taking place on Sunday, October 2, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the John C. Hart Memorial Library, was conceived by songwriter and torch songstress Ellen Woloshin. Woloshin combines her interpretations of classic songs (George Harrison, the Gershwins, Joni Mitchell and more) with her own original songs: always mindful that the art of torch-singing lies in its effect on the listener.
