The magic of this space goes beyond the artist talks, it is in the sense of community that is reinforced, a sense of creative freedom and generous mutual support and room for experimentation and general acceptance. Essential ingredients for this magic potion are camp fires, a dance floor, a well-stocked bar with very affordable beverages, delicious meals at long tables, large quantities of caffeine, very little sleep, (hopefully) splendid early summer weather, and many, many stories from all kinds of creative souls.
