Hana Presents
Lovers of story, workers of magic, weavers of hope, come ye to Sonoma for a flame-lit night of sacred storytelling at the redwood’s edge. We’ll gather as we did in days of old to let soulful words wash over us, delight our senses, and help us feel alive.

This evening features the exquisite storytelling of Eve Bradford, animist Daoist, teacher and ceremonialist. Over the last two years, Eve has crafted her personal story of beauty, loss, and grace into a jewel. As the heat breaks and the sounds of evening rise, we’ll gather on the south end of Green Valley Farm for a home-cooked feast of locally-sourced food. Then, minds open and bellies full, we’ll turn to Eve as she takes the stage.

This evening is presented by Hana, a school for spiritual voices devoted to uplifting the cultural role models whose wisdom is medicine for these times. Come early and walk the land, pitch your tent and stay the night, and enjoy Sunday morning’s pancake brunch before you go on your way.

We hope to see you there,
-David & Sydney
