JOIN US TO CELBRATE MODERN DRUID'S 5TH YEAR WITH DRUIDFEST!
DruidFest!
DruidFest is a contemporary gathering shaped by ancient instinct to come together on the land, to listen, to learn, and to honor community. We offer it as day to reconnect with what is true, what is real, what is natural in these challenging times.
The day begins at the threshold in town and unfolds outward, through community, along the Hudson River, and into the sanctuary of the cliffs at Nyack Beach State Park.
Across the day you will encounter living craft, ecological wisdom, music, storytelling, and ritual woven naturally into the landscape. Performers and conservationists, crafters and wildlife rehabilitators, authors and artisans.
Participation and Presence. Healing and Hope.
The day is organized around three movements, a triple spiral of connection to our natural world and community:
꩜ The Threshold – Modern Druid ꩜

MALA MAKING WORKSHOP WITH ADREA
Sunday, May 3, 2026, 10:00am-12:00pm
Peace is something we cultivate within. It’s a by product of calming our overactive and overstimulated minds and learning how to focus on one thing. Meditation is the best tool we have to develop a peaceful mindset.
For those who struggle to just sit in silence, mantra meditation provides a method to find the focus and calm through the silent or vocalized repetition of a mantra. In mantra japa, a mantra (a prayer for our hearts desire) is repeated 108 times. The use of the mala, or prayer beads, helps one to keep track of the number of times we have repeated the mantra.
As sacred sounds, each mantra has a certain frequency and through the repetition of the mantra, we spread this frequency around us infusing our aura and our beads with the vibrations of our prayers.
In this workshop, you will create your own unique mala using gemstone beads. Information will be provided as to how to start a mantra sadhana so you can also put your beads to use. A list of mantras is also provided.
$100 PER PERSON
