"We are very excited to be participating in the 2010 Beloved: Sacred Art & Music Festival. Join us in the fairy-like coastal woodlands of central Oregon, August 12-16 for a magical and devotional adventure as we celebrate the divine through 4 potent days of music, dance, prayer, playfulness, art and connection!"

• What is Beloved?
• Sacred Music
• Eco-Ethics
• Devotion
• Intention

Beloved is a 4 day camping, art, and music festival on the Oregon Coast. Central to the concept of the festival is our collective understanding that any sacred music can eliminate the illusion of separation from each other, from the earth, from The Beloved.

The festival hosts the following main areas, all of which help to enunciate our vision:

(1) A single stage hosting musical, educational, performative and ceremonial content.

(2) A “Temple Meadow.”

(3) A health and well-being area.

(4) A “Village.”

"In truth everything and everyone
Is a shadow of the Beloved,
And our seeking is His seeking
And our words are His words...
We search for Him here and there,
while looking right at Him.
Sitting by His side, we ask:
'O Beloved, where is the Beloved?'"
- Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi
