Healing Harmony is partnering with 18th & Union for Wellness Wednesdays, bringing a 60-minute group sound healing experience designed to help relax, unwind, and restore your physical, mental and spiritual bodies. Healing Harmony creates a unique improvisational sound scape with crystal and metal singing bowls, her handmade deer skin drum, and vocals to guide you on a transformational journey into deep healing and wellness.

What to expect: Most folks like to lie down (bring a blanket, pad, and/or pillow), but you can absolutely choose to sit instead. Fully clothed; no contact. You don't need to know anything special; you can literally just lie/sit there. Heather will introduce the practice, and the session lasts about 45 minutes, and tea will be offered after. Reasonably, you could be on your way home by 8 pm or soon after.

Heather Mullin is a professional musician with international performance experience, a decades long meditation practice, and has worked in the legal profession for over 25 years. After suffering from serious burnout and a health crisis she created Healing Harmony to help her clients transform their anxiety and stress into balance, peace, and harmony. Providing unique transformational healing experiences to reclaim health and reclaim joy. Please visit https://www.healingharmonyllc.org/ to find out more.

We believe in accessibility for all, and we trust you to support us as robustly as you can. (Nobody is turned away due to financial constraints; please email 18thandunionseattle@gmail.com if you need to request a pro bono ticket.)

MORE THAN FRIENDS
a triptych on queer love through the ages

Three one-act chamber operas from LGBTQIA+ contemporary composers and librettists come together to showcase the magic, poignance, and resilience of queer love.

Thirst
Composer: TJ Rubin
Librettist: Laura Barati

THIRST is a 10-minute chamber opera for two femmes that offers a magical realist exploration of intimacy and the tension between one's desire for partnership and one's desire for independence.

Emily & Sue
Composer: Dana Kaufman
Librettist: Aiden K. Feltkamp

EMILY & SUE is an a cappella pop opera that uses texts from Emily Dickinson's best-known poetry and love letters between Dickinson and Susan Gilbert to chronicle two days fraught with grief, hope, and sapphic yearning.

Achilles & Patroclus
Composer: Erika Meyer
Librettist: James Theodore Washburn

Through flashes of intimate memories, Achilles remembers his life with the love he lost in this achingly beautiful, unabashedly queer chamber opera for two voices.

You can watch the livestream at showtime Friday 26 May @ 7:30 pm, Saturday 27 May @ 7:30 pm, or you can access the recording at your convenience through June 18.
