Join us for MSAE’s sixth annual series of free, public soundwalks in the parks with support from the Chicago Park District’s Night Out In the Parks program, launching on Saturday, July 10. Our thematically focused events are special and highly accessible ways to discover mindfulness through listening, led by faculty and alumni from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and fellow teaching artists for a unique outdoor experience for all ages.
Results and reflections on the 2020 Hear Below underground soundwalk conducted by NON:op Open Opera Works and the Midwest Society for Acoustic Ecology, with underwriting support from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and a host of other NGOs.
