We invite you to join us for a beautiful weekend of Musical Connection in the Blue Ridge Mountains! This will be our 7th Free The Music Experience and our first time as an official “Family Festival!” We have an incredible lineup of talented Musical Facilitators coming to share their gifts, prayers, creativity flow, wisdom, and teachings with you all! The venue is an incredible 260 acre mountain paradise with nature trails, hot tubs, sauna, and freshwater swimming – and a 6000 sq ft. Lodge/indoor Sanctuary Space.
We have a wide variety of multi-genre musical acts, as well as interactive music workshops, covering topics like songwriting, rhythm and drumming, instrumentalism, music theory, electronic music & DJing, live looping, music production, confidence building, world music, and more. There will be movement medicine (yoga, dance, and xi gong), song circles, campfire jams, visual art, and an amazing kids program.
You will have the opportunity to participate and experience music in a whole new way. One of our goals at Free The Music is to create collaborative music spaces where everyone is included and amplified in their unique gifts. There is space for you to share your music/poetry/songs and express yourself authentically! There is also plenty of space to rest and receive and experience amazing music if that’s more your thing. Everyone will find joy and belonging here 🙂
In addition to all this, there is a healing arts sanctuary space with amazing bodyworkers and energy healers to support you as needed throughout the weekend. Also, we have an organic meal plan option (highly recommended!), as well as food vendors and an outdoor camp kitchen available for use.
There are ample toilets and even showers available as well, and camping with amenities is included in the costs for the weekend, including hot tub/sauna access and freshwater swimming! There are also (very limited) accommodation options available in the Lodge and Farmhouse for those that aren’t prepared to camp.
As I share all the details about this event, I can hardly believe it’s real. The beauty, the connection, the prayer, the music, the art and community that we create at every Free The Music Experience is truly incredible, something beyond words that must be experienced in order to really understand. We are honored to hold this space. This musical medicine speaks for itself and we can’t wait to share this experience with you!
