EARTHDANCE HOBE SOUND 2005 POSTER

On September 17th Hobe Sound held its first annual Earthdance celebration.Earthdance is a global party to focus on peace with over 150 cities from around the world. Hobe Sound Earthdance was held in conjunction with the Downtown Autumn Festival and Hobe Sound's first Green Market sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce. Proceeds from the Earthdance benefited the Treasure Coast Wildlife Center. Music was featured by "Higher Desire" and "the Clean Dirt Band." Artists Zard and Suzanne Briley captured the energy of the event by painting alongside the bands.

A drum circle and Prayer for Peace was the highlight of the event.

Earthdance, the Global Dance Festival for Peace has grown to become the world's largest simultaneous music and dance event. Founded in 1997, with 22 cities and 18 countries participating, Earthdance has grown to over 150 cities in 50 countries participating in 2004, with locations ranging from the club-lands of New York to the rainforests of Brazil. Every year, in alignment with the International Day of Peace, over 200,000 people unite in dance with hundreds of thousands more joining online in support of global peace and humanitarian aims.

The defining moment of each Earthdance event is a synchronized link-up, (4pm Pacifc Standard Time) when every event around the world plays a specially produced song called "The Prayer for Peace" at exactly the same time.

Earthdance has been described by the music industry as the "Dance Aid" for the new millennium. The aim of the event is to bring together global communities to create a synchronized global festival and dance event to help fund humanitarian causes and develop an environment of peace throughout the global community.

Earthdance is a non-political event and is organized by Earthdance International, a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization.
