What is the Techno Cosmic Celebration?
The Techno Cosmic Celebration is a revolutionary new form of interfaith, multi-cultural and intergenerational worship that welcomes the sacred into body, mind, heart and spirit. Surrounded by multi-media imagery and sounds drawn from ancient traditions as well as postmodern music, celebrants share a transformational experience through dance, prayer, song and silent reflection. The community collaborates to create this event, gathering local musicians, artists, poets, photographers, technicians, representatives from service organizations, spiritual ceremonialists and willing volunteers to bring this celebration to the larger community. It is created by community for the community.
History:
This is the third celebration co-sponsored by Common Spirit and The Naropa University School of Continuing Education. The past two events have drawn over 1,500 people from the community to a shared celebration of interconnectedness and community spirit. Together we have prayed, danced, grieved, and transformed. We have heightened the awareness of our participants to the needs of the community through local nonprofit services, initiatives and needs for support. Our drug, alcohol and tobacco-free environment promotes healthy and positive interactions for the many young people who attend.

There lives a prayer, it’s everywhere;
It breathes, it beats in all of us.
Protect the young, honor the old,
