Sita's Light returns to Sticks and Stones Farm to offer a fundraiser to celebrate the new season —bringing both the joy of kirtan and the beauty of the Dances of Universal Peace for all to enjoy!

Kirtan is a transformative practice of singing mantras and sacred songs in an easy, call-and-response style set to the eclectic music of harmonium, guitar, woodwinds, and percussion.

The Dances of Universal Peace blend chanting and guided circle dancing to create a living experience of unity, peace, and community.

This beautiful and unique evening of song and dance is absolutely NOT to be missed.

Come with an open mind, and leave with a song in your heart and a dance in your steps!

No prior chanting experience is necessary - and the dances are taught.
