About the Event
As the winter season approaches, CCLD members Scott and Prema Sheerin invite the community to their beautiful Willow Moon Farm for a communal fire and exceptional afternoon of live music. This is a benefit concert to raise funds for the building of a fire shelter at the CCLD Sanctuary, so that a vigil fire can be sustained 24/7 -- rain or shine, no matter the season -- whenever there is someone actively dying in residence.
In addition to the music and shared food, there will be a community discussion with CCLD elders about the role and gifts that fire provides in supporting Sanctuary residents, their families, and our caregivers.
It will be a festival-style stage with duos, trios, and larger groups such as Shantavani and Roots Grown Deep, plus some very special guests!
Featuring:
Jahidi - drumming for wellness
Greg Lathrop - native flutes and prayer song
Jason Hebal - electric guitar
Joel Karabo Elliott - guitar, trombone, voice
Scott Sheerin - winds
Paloma Devi - harmonium and sacred singing
Aditi & Jay Sethi-Brown - harmonium, guitar, veena, and sacred singing
Join us in enjoying the sound of music, the fire of fellowship, and in supporting the conscious weaving of traditional nature-based practices into the purpose and work of CCLD.
The event is outdoors and is rain or shine as we have a barn and indoor spaces as needed. Don't forget our community potluck. Bring something to share.
This a family-friendly gathering.
Admission is donation-based. Suggested is $25 to $50. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.Â
All proceeds go to the Center for Conscious Living and Dying, and all monies raised will be solely used to create a beautiful, dry, warm, space for this important work.
Please bring food and drink to share for this potluck gathering.
