Citizens of Darbukastan and honored friends and neighbors from around the world. Be it known that The Ministry of Culture hereby issues you an invitation to join with us to celebrate the Eleventh Anniversary of the establishment of our Artistic Alliance, the Dancing and Drumming Democracy of Darbukastan on June 3,4,and 5 of 2011!!

For three fun-filled days we will gather at Spirithaven Farm in Stuart, Virginia for a celebration of Music and Dance. We trust that you will be able to join with us for this momentous event that promises to be the best ever.

Participation is strictly limited to 100 registrants !
Cost is 175.00

All tuition goes toward paying our talented faculty and facility improvements. Our long-range plan includes a permanent performance area, under-roof and encloseable for the citizenry's comfort during inclement weather. Please help us get a head start on this by registering early.

Just to get your interest piqued, we have on our faculty some amazing talent, some of whom have been to DID's past, and some for whom this will be a first trip. 
And of course, Touch the Earth Imports will be offering exotic textiles, jewelry, drums and other goodies.
