Attendees:  @Ceri Shaw
The first annual Celtic Harvest Festival Sedona “A Celebration of the Changing Light” will be held September 19, 2009 from 10 AM to 5 PM at the Hilton Sedona Resort & Spa, with a ceilidh starting at 7 PM at the Hilton's Tequa Ballroom. The festival is being planned in the season of the Autumnal Equinox. Organizers include local residents, business people and the President of the Welsh League of Arizona, John Good (the festival's Cultural Director). Local community school children will benefit from free Celtic workshops including music and dance, as an educational adjunct to the main event on Saturday the 19th. Sorry, this activity is not open to the public, but you'll be able to see the students dance at the festival.

This special Magical Journeys event is brought to you by the Sedona Village Creative Initiative, which was started by 7 residents of the Sedona Village to assist local businesses. Since November 2008, hundreds of residents and visitors have enjoyed vibrant, educational, delicious varieties of Magical Journeys supporting our local business community.

The Celtic Harvest Festival Sedona 2009 will emphasize our rich Celtic heritage. John Good explained, “The Sedona festival will showcase all the Celtic Nations, gathering at the Hilton Sedona Resort & Spa.” We will be drawing from the deep Celtic well to provide a full day of beautiful music, spirited dancing, gorgeous poetry, moving stories, crafts, medicinal herbs and delicious foods. Oh yes! There will be activities for young Celts in their own special area.

Festival Director Dorothy O’Brien stated, “Our greater Sedona area is host to millions of visitors and our residents have a great desire to provide interesting, cultural activities that enrich and enlighten themselves and our guests. Arizona is home to some of the finest musicians and dancers, poets and storytellers of Celtic origin. What a privilege to showcase this rich heritage right here in Sedona!”
