I’m thrilled to share that Bodhi Fest, a Buddhist Arts and Film Festival hosted by Heartwood Refuge, will take place at the Asheville Community Theater on August 16, 2025!
This inspiring event—the very first annual Bodhi Fest—promises to be a day of illumination, joy, and connection. Through films, workshops, music, art, and community, it will explore the uplifting qualities of the human spirit, from serene solitude to ecstatic joy.
The program will feature:
- Buddhist films with Q&A sessions
- Short films
- A dance workshop
- A songwriting workshop
- Live musical performances
- Plus, crafts, art, and food from Buddhist sanghas, local artists, and vendors, showcased in the front lobby throughout the day.
I truly hope this wonderful celebration of creativity and Dharma will deepen the understanding of Buddhism and bring more peace and joy to the hearts of people in America.
May Bodhi Fest shine with wisdom and compassion! 🌿🎶🎬
Enjoy immersion in activities that provoke insight and lift the spirit.
