Bloom & Brew Weekly Yoga
Bloom & Brew – A Weekly Women's Gathering of Yoga + Tea
Move, breathe, and flow in the inspiring gallery space at Serendipity Salon & Gallery in Columbia with Candice of Inner Bloom Wellness.
This all-levels, trauma-informed class blends mindful movement, breath awareness, and accessible options for every body. Yoga to soften begins our practice, grounding you with breath work and meditation. From there, we flow through intentional movement designed to build strength, increase mobility, and cultivate presence. After class, enjoy tea to soothe, freshly brewed by Steep and Bloom, while surrounded by inspiring artwork—art to awaken—and connecting with others in community—community to connect. You’ll leave refreshed, balanced, and inspired.
No prior yoga experience is required. Whether you’re brand new or a seasoned practitioner, this class offers space to explore at your own pace. Please bring a mat and any props that support your comfort.

June 27th 10am
In Good Company: Audra & Friends
Celebrate Audra's 50th birthday early with a night of original music: In Good Company: Audra and Friends, a live recording project at the beautiful grand at Serendipity.
On June 28th, Audra will gather her favorite humans, singers, and instrumentalists for an intimate concert at Serendipity Salon and Gallery. This special evening will feature a rotating lineup of guest artists performing songs composed by Audra, each brought to life through the unique voices and musical styles of the collaborators who have shaped her artistic journey.
The concert is also a live recording project! The performances will be captured and released on digital platforms on Audra's actual birthday in August!
Because seating at Serendipity is limited, the concert will be offered in two seatings so more people can be part of the live recording experience:
🎶 Early Seating at 3 pm
🎶 Late Seating at 7 pm
Each seating will feature a full concert of Audra’s original songs, special collaborations, and the kind of musical moments that only happen when great artists gather together in a room!
Come celebrate 50 years of life, creativity, friendship, and song—and be part of a live recording filled with heart, storytelling, and music shared in good company.
Reserve your tickets here!

Did you know? We are proud purveyors of Polish Stoneware!
Polish Stoneware originated as folk art in the 18th century, and the village of Boleslawiec continues this tradition to this day. Each piece is hand-stamped and painted with varying intricacy of designs, and can be mixed and matched or bought as sets. Each design comes in every form, from dishware to picture frames and much more!
Click here (https://www.serendipitysalonandgalleryshop.com/shop/polish-pottery/ZDLKB2VHI6DXQPDOBERBGCIC?page=1&limit=60&sort_by=category_order&sort_order=asc) to see our entire collection, and stop by the shop to see these incredible pieces in person!
What's in the Gallery?
Across the work, grief unfolds through cycles of accumulation and erosion, presence and disappearance, rupture and return. Forms emerge that resemble cells, nests, pathways, weather, maps, bodies, and living networks—suggesting that remembering does not reside solely in the mind, but circulates through places, materials, relationships, and the body itself.
In this practice, remembering is not an attempt to recover what was, but to attend to what persists. The paintings hold space for what cannot be fully spoken: the textures of longing, the labor of care, and the subtle ways love continues to shape our embodied lives.
Viewers are invited to move slowly through the exhibition, attending to their own rhythms of memory, sensation, and reflection, and to consider how grief and remembrance live not only within us, but between us and the worlds we inhabit.
