Pickathon is more than music; it’s a world within Pendarvis Farm’s natural beauty. Throughout June, we’re unveiling our unique neighborhoods where creativity and nature collide. Join us as we preview all the vibrant neighborhoods leading up to our best experiential festival yet!
First up is the Woods Neighborhood. We asked The Branch Crew Team to give us a glimpse of what to expect from August 1-4, 2024. Here’s what they said:
Deep in Pickathon’s heart, where sunlight surrenders to whispering leaves, lies the 2024 Pickathon Woods Neighborhood.
Imagine a symphony of branches woven from the forest floor itself. Fallen limbs, winter’s discarded treasures, rise in breathtaking forms. Here, Forest Baskets cradle intimate gatherings, while Running Fences beckon you deeper into this mystical realm. Healing Spaces soothe weary souls, and mystical Portals hint at unseen wonders. Tunnels wind through the undergrowth, leading to the crown jewel – the legendary Woods Stage, nestled in a natural amphitheater.
This is not mere construction; it’s a joy-fueled creation. The Branch Crew Team Squad, under the visionary leadership of Mark Lakeman and coordination of Samantha Rayvin, breathes life into fallen branches. Laughter permeates the air as they stretch, share tales, and harmonize with the music. They don’t just listen to the wind but to the soul of each branch, coaxing out its hidden potential. Every curve, every knot, becomes a testament to nature’s resilience and the transformative power of collaboration.
The woods of Pickathon are not just a scenic backdrop, they are an immersive experience. Here, the magic is in the very air you breathe. Let the branches be your guide. Join us in something extraordinary.
Entering the Woods Neighborhood is like stepping into the forest, the festival casts a spell from the very first moment. As people approach the Woods Stage, we aim to help them feel the power of nature. We weave forms, shapes, and design metaphors into our structures, evoking enchantment and a deep connection with nature. Click below to get a sneak peek at the magic of the Woods Neighborhood.
Leaving the city means escaping violence and the decay of precious memories. We seek the primordial, reconnecting with the geomorphic village in our hearts and the world. It’s not just retreating; it’s envisioning a future in harmony with the world. Pickathon aims to awaken the inner geomorphic village, turning everyone into musicians in their unique way.
