The Rootwire Transformational Arts Festival is heading into its fifth year as the ceremonies take place in a new location. Happening at Sunshine Daydream Memorial Park in Terra Alta, WV July 17-20, Rootwire peeks its head into the nexus of nature and culture once again.
An event with artistic expression as its heart and soul, Rootwire is a multi-day event that envelops those in attendance in a cascading flow of artistic expression from live music to painting, installation to performance art, presentations, workshops, ceremony and more. Two of the featured artisans at the event include legendary visionary artists Alex & Allyson Grey who are ranked among the world’s most renowned spiritual leaders; they will be live painting during the event as well as hosting workshops.
Since its inception in 2010, Rootwire has grown to be one of the premier live music and arts events in the Midwest. Every year since, the line-up and scope of the festival has grown, culminating in 2014’s community-building festival. An expedition into light, nature, sound, community and healing awaits all those in attendance.
