About this Event

Peace Out!

Peace Out! is a two day event centered on World Peace on May 2-3 at the Topa Institute in Ojai (formerly Ojai Foundation) including music, dharma talks, interactive storytelling, and sacred ceremonies.

Multidisciplinary artist and NYT Bestselling Author Kim Krans (The Wild Unknown tarot series) is one of the headliners on the bill, who rarely makes public appearances. She will be reading an essay which was a recent Substack release titled:

'Waterlilies in Wartime'

Monet, Jung, and the Art of Caring

and will present associated artwork + participate in a QA afterwards.
Musician Scarlet Rivera from Bob Dylan's 'Desire' album will engage in a conversation with Jaymee Carpenter about being pursued and vetted by Bob Dylan 50 years ago this year for what would become the iconic Rolling Thunder Revue tour. She will play songs live in addition to this talk.
DC Hip-Hop artist and renowned Spiritual Teacher Born I (Ofosu Jones-Quartey) will host a sound bath and perform songs from his latest album "Komorebi".
Brendan Willing James is an Ojai-based folk, rock and country songwriter who will be performing songs from his latest album Barbs with The Echo Magic Band and producer Scott Hirsch.
Soulful troubadour Kevin Sandbloom is a Southern California legend who has opened for Gil Scott-Heron, Saul Williams and Bilal. Kevin will be performing a set of songs live, which will leave you in a pure state of amazement.
On Sunday (Day 2), we will begin the day with a sunrise kirtan lead by Ganesh Das.

The two days of peace will culminate with Tibetan Buddhist teacher Lama Khenpo Sonam conducting a sacred fire puja ceremony throughout the day.

We are also excited to share that camping options on this sacred land are available for friends and family to enjoy the enitrity of the gathering.
