Skye on the River

Springtime Concert at Okihi: An Evening by the Kern River

Your time is precious—spend it wisely, surrounded by nature, live music, and good company! Join us Saturday, October 4, from 6–9 PM for a magical night under the stars at Okihi, our 14-acre riverside retreat.

Meet us where the sky meets the river and experience an unforgettable evening of local music, community, and connection in one of Kern County’s most beautiful natural settings.

Why This Event Matters:At Okihi, everything we do is inspired by cultivating a mindful relationship with nature, our community, and ourselves. Your support of this event is an investment in our shared backyard—all proceeds go directly to maintaining and improving Okihi and supporting local musicians.
