Karuna: wisdom cultivated through compassion

Who we are

We are a local community with a diverse, multi-talented group of individuals. We share a vision which has united us through creativity, expression, and self-exploration. Our common thread of psytrance music, also known as Goa, has united our passion and experiences.

The Event

The Tucson Gem Show provides an ideal opportunity to share our community with artists AND gem show visitors who have similar values. We wish to create an environment with a true reflection of our community through multimedia, visual & live art, music, and fashion. This event is an attempt to provide a gathering space for like-minded individuals to create, share and connect. Participation of all in attendance is encouraged and may be in various forms: dancing, drumming, sharing artistic expression, and forming/strengthening personal relationships.

The dance floor will be drenched in blacklight. Come dressed in your most psychedelic UV reactive outfit and have your picture taken in the UV photo booth! To help protect the delicate dance surface, please be prepared to remove your shoes.

The event will be February 9th from 9:00 pm to 6:00 am (sunrise). We will provide free bottles of water and fresh fruit. To cover the monetary expenses for this event, we'll be asking for a base donation of $10 per person. This will be an intimate event. Please do not repost this information publicly on any message boards, mailing lists, etc. DO share with close friends.
