Dear Interbeing Festival participants, performers and facilitators,
We hope you are dealing well with the intense fallout from the storm; it’s been a powerful experience for everyone we’ve contacted, and of course, many of us are still in the thick of it all - figuring it out as we go.
The 2024 festival has been rescheduled for April 26th, of 2025. It will be good that the festival is no longer in primary hurricane season going forward.
It is our hope that the majority of ticket holders will be able to attend next April, and that the majority of performers and facilitators will be available to join us then as well. You are welcome to request a refund or your festival and/or dinner ticket. However, we encourage you to hold onto it and join us next April. In the event that you can’t join us, please consider donating the money you’ve already paid to Beloved Asheville anyway, as they are doing massive relief and recovery service work on the ground. If you like, feel free to email us at info@samasatisanctuary.org with instructions on how to proceed with your purchase - hold it for next April, donate it to Beloved Asheville, or initiate a refund.
As for us, we are all safe, and we feel extremely fortunate to be in a place where we can help others. If you know anyone in the area, Weaverville/Asheville who may need water, a ride to the store, a place to shower or just help with digging out - let us know.
Blessings for a swift and full recovery.
The Samasati Staff - Vinit, Rajyo, Michael and Shannon.
