Who We Are
CEA is a multi-use space that focuses on transformative, purposeful and artful experiences embedded with meaning and wisdom.
Free from any one religion or prescriptive dogma, this event platform and laboratory aims to elevate the wide spectrum of existing healing practices and personal development modalities that can lead intrepid practitioners to self-realization and self-actualization.
We believe that wisdom is found through the merging of different fields. We strive to create a dynamic hub where artists, entrepreneurs, and individuals come together to celebrate art, culture, and mindfulness while also experiencing cutting-edge immersive technology.
By learning, practicing and sharing within this safe and supportive community, our mission is to empower you to find your practice path so that you can become your own teacher.
Founder Story
CEA is the brainchild of Chemistry Creative’s founder Pete Sax and Irene, his wife. Although the couple has spent a lifetime as existential seekers, a major personal crisis catalyzed their search for deeper healing and transformation.
From forays into sound and psychedelics to Vajrayana Buddhism and Dzogchen meditation, their road to healing became a journey of spiritual awakening. It has led them to at once explore and immerse themselves in multiple ideologies, lineages and wisdoms.
They wish that a space like CEA would have existed for them as they were navigating these challenges: a creatively inspiring and accessible venue devoted to introducing the path to self-exploration within an authentic, diverse and inclusive community.
