Two Years of Magic
2026-05-31 12:30 - 16:00 | MA
Join us as we celebrate two years of Dreki Soul with an interactive afternoon of play, creativity, healing, and connection. This gathering is our gift to the community – a space to come together in joy, presence, and gratitude for all that has been built over the past two years.

Free Admission (Services & Creations have a fee per person)

This is a hands-on, experiential community gathering where you can choose how you’d like to participate: through games and laughter, creative craft stations, or receiving healing and practitioner offerings.

The studio will be divided into three flowing spaces:
🎲 Games
🎨 Creation Stations
Hands-on creative stations where you can make something meaningful to take home, such as intention-based crafts, art, and small ritual creations.
🔮 Healing Services
A quieter, sacred space offering mini healing sessions including Reiki, sound healing, intuitive card pulls, somatic practices, and other practitioner-led experiences.
Throughout the day, you are free to move between spaces at your own pace — play, create, receive, or simply rest and connect.

We will begin and end with short community circles to honor the journey of Dreki Soul, share gratitude, and set intentions for the year ahead.

This event is about celebrating community, embodiment, and the magic we create together.

Come as you are.
Stay as long as you like.
Participate in whatever calls to you.

✨ Two years of magic — and many more to come. ✨

Artists Reception: June 6, 4-7pm
Below and Within
Below and Within explores the underwater world – primarily fish, turtles and frogs – and what it stirs within artists Julie Kumble and Martha Brouwer. As individuals, fish appear beautiful, strange, vulnerable. In groups, particularly in massive shoals, they’re powerful and they convey hope of the collective. By engaging with the paintings, the artists hope that viewers will also feel a reverence for what they don’t normally see, and in turn increase their conscience and actions in protecting our waters.

2026-06-06 16:00 - 19:00 | ECA Gallery, 108 Cottage Street, Easthampton, MA, 01027, United States
Exhibition Statement by Falcon Laina
Two years ago, in a time of upheaval in my personal life, I began having thematically cohesive dreams. I noticed the same characters returning night after night, and imagery which felt strangely specific and meaningful. I began to think of these images as my companions, and these characters as vessels which could serve as a sculptural body to my emotions. The central sculpture in this project is a hollow ceramic marionette suspended from a steel frame. This body is vulnerable in its capacity to be a container as well as its reliance on an external support structure. Genres and formats, the packaging and repackaging of information in order to aid communication and understanding forms a central interest to me as a transgender person. Combining indexical and non-indexical media, the archive consists of silver gelatin prints, drawings, and found objects which document the story of one person’s complex inner world.

This year, our faculty—as always— consists of world-class players who are also highly skilled educators.
And we’re going to offer deep dives into traditional and contemporary techniques, tunes, improvisation, and amplification for both youth and adults, ages 14 on up. Adults can stay in the dorms. Registrants consist of locals as well as players from around the country. Make new music friends in our warm community setting on a beautiful campus.
