OM Gong Experience (private) – near Rogers Park

The OM Gong Experience is a private gong meditation led by Preston Klik, an Evanston, Illinois musician who guides live meditative sound journeys. It takes place near Rogers Park, Illinois, and is a private gathering rather than an open public concert. It suits anyone drawn to a sound bath, a gong meditation, or an hour of deep listening and rest.

What to Expect

The OM Gong Experience is one of the offerings Preston Klik brings to listeners alongside his "Ocean of Devotion Sound Journey." The gong sits at the center of the practice, and the aim is a quiet, immersive meditation shaped by sound rather than by instruction.

Preston's wider work gives a sense of the palette he draws from. He plays melodica, didjeridoo, Ocean Drum, loops, crystal bowls, Native American flute, wah-tube, rattles and drums. His Shamanic Walkabout concerts have been described as both grounding and transcendent, "a healing meditation for some, a psychic music-guided trance-journey for others." People come to his sound journeys to rest, listen and let the music do its work in whatever way suits them.

Before You Go

This gong meditation is private, so it is not an open drop-in event. Preston's studio, the Chapel Of Sacred Sounds, does not host events, and the gong sessions take place near Rogers Park rather than at his Evanston home.
