RISE
At RISE, gather in sisterhood with lesbian elders and young Amazons. Join our growing community for daytime workshops, evening concerts & dances, and late-night campfires. Rest, make connections, learn new skills, let The Land hold you, and store up healing energy for the year ahead. For 2026, we’re excited to bring you a full festival program of thoughtful performances, workshops about lesbian cultural heritage, intergenerational community-building & dialogue, feminist changemaking and more, film screenings, shared meals, and the chance to unwind, share and grow together with sisters in the woods of Michigan. New in 2026, buy your ticket & add-on meal plan at the same time! Strega caters vegan, vegetarian or omnivore dinners.
