Heart & Mind Presents KUSI: A JOY Festival

Join us for a live celebration of the solstice and the Winter holidays, the season of KUSI (meaning joy or delight in Quechua) and festivities. Through song, music, dance, food, and very special cacao ceremony led by Golden Drum’s visionary founder, Maestro Manuel Rufino, we invoke the presence of JOY as a prayer for all nations and people of the world.

Presenters include: Maestro Manuel Rufino, Renata Rufino, Kevin Nathaniel, Laraaji, Dream Seed and more to be announced.

Cacao ceremony will begin around 8pm.

Food from Jungle Cafe will be available for purchase until 7pm.

All proceeds will go to support the Golden Drum.

Thank you for supporting this event. We appreciate your 100% tax-deductible donation.

Entry by donation, $25 suggested which includes the Cacao Ceremony. No one turned away for lack of funds.

Co-presented with Golden Drum, Jungle Cafe, The Sacred Arts Research Foundation, Movement of the American Indian Solar Culture (MAISC), Acción por la Unidad Mundial, and the Universal Initiatic College.
