RITUAL & RELEASE: Music, Dance, Poetry & Sound Healing benefiting MUSC Arts in Healing

In a world shaped as much by quiet transitions as by seismic change—losing loved ones, chapters closing, identities evolving, paths diverging—letting go is a constant part of the human experience. Yet we’re rarely given the space to honor it, feel it, or release it. Ritual & Release is part performance, part ceremony, part communal unburdening—a multisensory experience where story becomes sound, release becomes rhythm, and memory becomes connection.

Featuring performances from some of the Lowcountry’s most gifted artists, Ritual & Release invites us to embrace the cycles of life, release what no longer serves, and find beauty and grace in the face of change. Whether you’re grieving a loss, moving through transition, or simply longing for connection in uncertain times, we offer a collective experience of release and resilience—a chance to remember that you are not lighter.

All proceeds from the evening will benefit Arts in Healing at
