The Camden Public Library Amphitheater (Rain Date, Sunday, October 29 6:00pm)

A special, outdoor, nighttime, and eerie sonic experience to celebrate the season, presented by Jim Doble on a wide assortment of large gongs and Forest Weston on didgeridoo.

As the full moon rises over Camden Harbor, we will be bathing the Amphitheater in mystical sound to help transport you on an inner journey.

Think of this as sonic meditation, best experienced in a very relaxed position with closed eyes. Bring something comfy to lay or sit on and plenty of warm cloths/blankets to ward off the chill.

This is a free event with optional donation, which partly benefits the Library.
