Kirtan Experience
What is a Kirtan Experience?
Kirtan is an ancient practice in which a “Wallah” (a kirtan facilitator) leads the audience in call-and-response devotional chanting. The practice is a fun, energizing, and healing way to learn mantras, sing in community (in a safe, supportive space), and commune with our higher selves. No experience is necessary. The mantras are repetitious and simple.
Bring a meditation cushion or pillow and a yoga mat. Wear comfy clothes for stretching, dancing, and relaxing.
Our facilitator, Mehtab Kirtan, is an active drummer/percussionist and facilitates sound journeys and kirtans throughout the Chicago area.
A sliding scale of $25 to $35 is suggested for participating in the kirtan, but no one will be turned away; tickets are available at the event. Come join a new and different experience and get in touch with your inner self!
Meeting in the Chapel upstairs. Parking available in the lower lot on W. Gordon Pike.
