Elaine Barber

On Thursday nights, the Cloud Tree Gallery transforms into a meditative listening environment with rugs, pillows and bean bag chairs, as well as traditional seating.  A cathedral wall of Mondrianesque glass and steel serves as the backdrop to the musical performances.  A restorative, healing audience experience where a high level of artistry and sound bath aesthetics intersect.
