“In 2025 we held both in person and online gatherings. We held opened up the monthly zoom meetings of the chameleon community club (renamed) free to the public (rather than membership-based access) as a way to help the far-flung community stay in touch in between in-person starwood festivals. Our winterstar symposium provided an online fundraising opportunity and much- needed community support for over 50 attendees through classes, performances and a panel discussion with community elders. About 680 people attended the 45th starwood festival, at wisteria event site in pomeroy, ohio july 15-21, 2025, over 350 of whom were recipients of work- scholarships, who might not otherwise afford to attend. We presented approximately 150 workshops, and curated approximately 50 separate live performances by musicians, dancers, and other performing artists, including african and woman-led groups. With cleveland foundation funding, we continued a stipend-paid intern program this year, with our experienced stage hands teaching students in the recording arts technology program at cuyahoga community college how to put on a series of successful outdoor concerts on different types of stages. In addition, we secured 10,000 additional grant money for boosting the pufferdome acoustic space and adjacent omphalos community space, feeding the community (while sheltering people during storms) and bringing in talent that would otherwise not afford to attend. We continued to foster artistic and economic opportunities through our vibrant vending community. We are honored to be "america's longest running transformational festival".”
