Interactive Arts Festival in Maui Hawaii ☆ 2013 Theme: Imaginarium
SOURCE 2013 ☆ February 22-25

SOURCE is Maui’s largest annual multi-media arts, music and healing festival.

We come to SOURCE to strengthen ohana, laugh with our children, create and share art, gifts, food and song and dance under the stars. SOURCE is entirely created with the energy and passion of its members. We are artists and families. Some of us are Maui residents and many others are travelers, modern gypsies and fairies who fly in to share the magic with us. Bring your friends, your music, your art, your authentic self to create Maui SOURCE Festival.

Mahalo to All 2013 SOURCE Artists & Participants. See you again next year!

The WombRoom is our healing arts center, where you can give or receive energy healing, attend healing workshops, and enjoy chill downtempo music in the late evenings. We invite healers to present healing workshops in the WombRoom. This is an energetic and favorite zone every year. We also offer a sweat lodge in the lower field.

THEME CAMPSpirate theme camp at source

Theme camps are a core interactive element of our festival. The center field of SOURCE is the primary Theme camp zone. Theme camps create festival ambiance and require some investment in visual presence. They provide communal spaces and creative hubs for activities, such as dancing. Simplicity often works best. You must register theme camps before arriving on-site.
