Come and be part of the Caravan of the Beautiful!

“At Night, We Can See the Stars…”

March 19th – 22nd, 2026 at Rising Tide in Sarasota

During dark times, dark nights of the soul, we return to our spiritual community, practices, and most true inner self to re-light constellations of guidance.

We must find again our stars, those guides in the night that help steer the course to navigate with purpose, direction, confidence and grace in the Caravan of the Beautiful.

This Equinox we come together to sing, dance, chant, pray, play, write, move, and laugh together Toward the One, on this pathless path of the heart we call life.

Join us on a transformative gathering where music, poetry, movement, and meditation become the caravan that carries us deeper into the heart of the Beautiful.

Guided by the timeless wisdom of tradition, we will gather in sacred circle to:

  • Explore devotional chants and zikr
  • Embody presence through movement & dance
  • Reflect with meditation, poetry and writing
  • Sit in silence in nature and under the stars

This is an invitation to step beyond words and enter a shared journey of love, surrender, and beauty — an oasis for the soul.

“Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray.” — Rumi

  • Concert & Vocal Journey with HuDost
