About The Event
Returning to Oakwood Beach for its eleventh year, Sandbox Symphony XI transforms the shoreline into a living gallery where sound, style, and community care meet. Curated live-PA sets, a runway-on-the-sand fashion showcase, and interactive installations invite guests to move, make, and meditate together. Expect sunrise grounding, sound baths, and guided listening; youth-led media and maker activations; local vendor markets; nature-centered art stations; and a sunset concert that closes with collective reflection. Rooted in Chicago’s South Side cultural lineages and designed for all ages, Sandbox Symphony centers accessibility, joy, and co-creation—offering simple, repeatable wellness practices alongside unforgettable performances. Bring curiosity, comfortable shoes, and a friend; leave with new tools for regulation, inspiration, and community connection.
