Spiral Rhythms brings together Musicians, Authors, Environmentalists, and Earth-Worshippers of call kinds for a common cause. It's a great networking opportunity and we raise energy and knowledge.

Sadly we will not be able to put on the Spiral Rhythms Festival in 2009. The reason for this is lack of funding.nWe are a grass roots local organization with a lot of energy and 13 years of experience doing public events. We've been holding the festival since 2001, and most years we have broken even. In 2007 we didn't, so we have taken 2008 and 2009 off to regroup and try to make the festival self sustaining.

This where we need your help. Of course, we are always accepting any cash donations. If you wish to make a cash donation please contact us by mail, email or phone - contact info listed below.

Please attend our in-town events: public rituals, house concerts and parties - and bring your friends! These events are listed, click the M.A.G.I.C. tab to the left, then the Events tab to see what is scheduled.

We are also looking for new ways to raise money. We need new ideas in new directions. None of us has prior non-profit fundraising experience, so we are looking for volunteers who have it and would like to work with the board to teach us new ways of raising money. We also need someone to write grant proposals for us, and someone with event promotion experience.

This is a lot to ask for. We know you are out there and we know you want to help. We wouldn't have the festival without the community we serve. YOU make this all happen by participating and having fun with us.

Thank you all very much. We hope to see you all again at Spiral Rhythms 2010.

What is Spiral Rhythms Festival?
It's a 4 day, 3 night, outdoor camping festival in Klickitat County, WA.  There is a main stage for music and musically-oriented workshops, and is also the site of a large public Earth-based ceremony each year.  An all volunteer staff helps supervise a kid's booth, serves hot meals in the kitchen, hosts a drum circle and a Temple, and brings together an entire culmination of a weekend experience like none other.

The Spiral Dance

Music:  Our focus is on acoustic music from all diverse backgrounds, from currently relevant political satires to middle eastern strings and tabla.  Check out our music page for a sample of last year's musicians.

Magick:  Each year, our main event on Saturday afternoon is a large group ceremony that includes live music, community interaction, and Earth-based spiritual ideals.  This Main Ritual establishes the Theme for the rest of the festival, which is played out in smaller rituals, workshops, shrines, and concerts.  See the magick page for more about the Main Ritual.

Activities:  Every year brings new workshops, new ideas, new musical approaches, and new faces.  Workshops are scheduled during daylight hours, and are focused around music, spirituality, environment, peace, and alternative healing.  There are open mic times at the stage, interactive shrines, and late-night music around more than one campfire.
