This is a free event. Come early to secure your space. No chairs are available. We recommend you to bring your own meditation cushion.

Laurie, Bridget and Bart are inspired to be of service to the community of spiritual seekers in Toronto, through the selfless service of free kirtan evenings. They are joined by equally inspired world class musicians.

Join us for an extraordinarily uplifting and deeply profound evening of sacred chant where you will be guided into experiences of your own greatness of heart. The sweetness of chanting opens and purifies the heart. Chanting naturally aligns us to the inner self. As we enter into a dialogue with the divine, this balances our subtle energy.

Individually and collectively, Laurie, Bart and Bridget have played professionally throughout Canada, the USA and Mexico. For the last 20 years they have had the privilege of chanting with some of the greatest yogis of our modern time. In these trying times they have chosen to give back to the community through free evenings of Kirtan.
