A Free Community Festival Celebrating Connection, Creativity & the Lion's Gate Portal
After the incredible success of our Summer Solstice Celebration, Insumataq Studio is thrilled to invite our community back for an even bigger evening of music, movement, healing, and celebration.
The Lion's Gate Portal is celebrated every year on August 8 (8/8) and is often seen as a symbolic time for renewal, transformation, abundance, courage, and stepping into your highest potential. While people celebrate it in different ways, at its heart it's an invitation to reflect on where you've been, set intentions for where you're going, and connect more deeply with yourself and those around you.
At Insumataq, we believe transformation happens through community.
This event isn't about following a particular belief system—it's about creating a space where people from all walks of life can gather, celebrate, and enjoy an unforgettable summer evening together.
Whether you come to dance, connect with friends, support local businesses, experience live performances, or simply enjoy the energy, you'll find something here for you.
