Mount Ida Preservation Association

Final Two Events of Our Spring Season
June 8 & 9 | Free / Open to the Public

We close our Spring Season with two of our most adventurous programs yet, as artists from near and far transform Mount Ida through immersive installation, sound, ritual, and performance.

Monday, June 8 | 2–8 PM
Madrigals, Void and Verb
An immersive visual and audio installation by Adriannos Efthymiadis and Jacksun Bein.

Step into the sanctuary transformed by sound, architecture, and striking visual elements. Part performance and part exhibition, this day-long installation invites visitors into a space where branches seem to forget gravity and the familiar drifts toward wonder.

Drop in anytime and stay as long as you like.
Grilled food available 6–8 PM.

Tuesday, June 9 | 7 PM
Việt Namaste Shamanaste: QUẾerake House Baller Ballads

Presented as part of GPS* 2026: Human + Computer Relations, this boldly playful and thought-provoking performance by Việt Lê and collaborators reimagines traditional hầu bóng ritual through music, movement, drag, and contemporary performance. Following the show, stay for a conversation with the artists.

A little rainbow over Mount Ida to close out the season.

While our Spring Season is coming to an end, the Luna Series, Anything Goes Open Mic, and additional artist-led programs will continue throughout the summer.
