4Culture and artist Susan Robb invite you to peek behind the curtain and experience the wondrous world of wastewater treatment firsthand with a special tour of the Brightwater Treatment Plant this Saturday, September 23.
After the tour, participants can take a sound bath with Scott Francis, co-owner of Mind Body Hum—this symphonic journey is designed to resonate with the frequency of gratitude and become a conduit for relaxation, introspection, and rejuvenation.
Following the sound bath, a hosted reception will create space for sharing newfound insights. For those who crave more exploration, a self-guided stroll along the three miles of walking trails that wind through Brightwater’s native plant landscapes, restored wetlands, and mature forested areas awaits.
The autumnal equinox is the perfect day to celebrate this amazing place in the world we call home. This event has a limited capacity, and tickets are going quickly, so register today!

Susan Robb’s work is an ongoing investigation of people and our emotional connection to place and each other. Her art takes its form as sculpture, photography, video, performance, interventions, and socially engaged projects (The Long Walk, Parking Squid, Onn/OF a Light Festival, Giant Black Toobs). For each work, she draws on sensorial responses, creative direct action, and a re-purposing of forms, sites, and materials. Learn more about the artist at susanrobb.com and @susanrobb on Instagram.
