Rumi's Caravan; A Benefit for the CERES Project

An evening of poetry in the ecstatic tradition, featuring the works of Jellaludin Rumi, Hafiz, William Blake, Mary Oliver and others presented in the oral tradition with musical accompaniment by Kim Atkinson on world percussion, violinist Cynthia Albers and Christine Tulis on harp. The evening starts with the freshest and healthiest of Sonoma County’s bountiful harvest in a delectable Middle Eastern Feast provided by Ceres Community Project. In the soft light of evening, wander down the bamboo-lined path into the serene environment of the Osmosis zen garden with its rock sculpture inspired by the Chinese Zen parable of the Ox and the Ox herder. As you encircle the koi pond joining with turtles and dragonfly, enjoy the sweet night air mixed with poetry, song, and music.. Coturri Winery will be pouring wine. 6:00 to 7:00pm Middle Eastern Feast and Wine 7:00 to 8:15pm Performance 8:15 to 9:00 Dessert and Enzyme Footbaths Tickets for this benefit event are just $60, advance ticket purchase is advised as this event will most likely sell-out.
