SUMMARY:Unplugged Nature Walk & Sound Healing with Rachel Lee Hovnanian and
  Adriana Barone
DESCRIPTION:Join artist Rachel Lee Hovnanian and sound healer Adriana Baron
 e for a two-part program inspired by presence\, attention\, and reconnecti
 on with the natural world.\n\nStep away from the digital noise and onto th
 e LongHouse grounds for an unplugged\, sensory nature walk guided by Rache
 l Lee Hovnanian. Guests are invited to place their phones on silent and in
  a Yondr pouch before setting out. This act of intentional disconnection m
 irrors the spirit of Rachel Lee Hovnanian’s artistic practice as represe
 nted earlier this year in Nature Deficit Disorder at the Baltimore Museum 
 of Art's Spring House.\n\nGuests will settle into the Pavilion after the w
 alk for a relaxing sound healing session led by Adriana Barone. Let the re
 sonant tones of various healing instruments wash over you\, grounding the 
 sensory experience from your time outdoors.\n\nFollowing the sound healing
  session\, light refreshments will be offered and Hovnanian and Barone wil
 l engage in an informal\, moderated conversation about art\, attention and
  healing. Though they work in different mediums--Hovnanian through concept
 ual art and Barone through sound healing--both artists create experiences 
 that invite reflection\, restore attention\, and foster emotional well-bei
 ng. Together\, they will discuss art as a catalyst for healing\, the impac
 t of technology on the human experience\, and the role of presence\, natur
 e\, and creativity in cultivating deeper connection before opening the con
 versation to questions.\n\nEnjoy a uniquely restorative experience for the
  mind\, body\, and spirit—no Wi-Fi required.\n\nProgram Schedule\n\nGuid

 meaningful connection.\n\nUpon arrival\, attendees will receive a Yondr po
 uch to securely store their phone\, smartwatch\, or AirPods. You’ll keep

  a designated station.\n\nWhy? Because sometimes\, the boldest tech move i
