We are thrilled to welcome Gina Maray to Kirtan Fest Milwaukee, where she’ll be guiding us through a one-hour Ecstatic Dance experience!

Gina’s enthusiasm for all things that elevate joy and empowerment makes her absolutely magnetic. Through kirtan, drumming, sacred art, or ecstatic dance, the vibrant spirit she embodies is contagious. Her invitation is to simply come as you are, move freely, and reconnect with the joy that lives within; especially if it's uncomfortable!

Beyond sharing her gifts on stage, Gina has been a tremendous contributor behind the scenes, generously lending her creativity and talents to help bring Kirtan Fest Milwaukee to life. Her spirit of seva and willingness to give wholeheartedly make her a true blessing to our community.

And be sure to visit Gina in the vendor area, where she’ll be sharing her beautiful offering, Sacred Light Portraits, a deeply personal blend of photography and hand-painted artwork designed to honor the divine light within all of us.

Join us as we dance, celebrate, and remember the freedom that comes from moving together in community!

For years, TulsiRam has quietly and consistently dedicated his life to serving others, supporting the Bhakti tradition, and creating opportunities for connection through sacred music and community. Whether he's welcoming artists to the Chicago area, helping events come to life behind the scenes, or creating spaces for people to gather in devotion, his generosity touches countless lives.
Each summer, TulsiRam organizes the Chicago Kirtan Party, bringing people together not only for Kirtan and spiritual connection, but also to make a meaningful difference in the world. What makes this especially dear to my heart is that both last year and this year, he chose to support the Pradiya Foundation through his fundraising efforts. The fact that he has used his platform to help provide education, nourishment, and opportunity for children and families in Nepal is such a beautiful reflection of what Bhakti is all about, love in action.
We're honored to welcome TulsiRam to Kirtan Fest Milwaukee, where he'll be leading a Hanuman Chalisa experience. Whether you're already familiar with this powerful devotional practice or encountering it for the first time, it's going to be wonderful. Thank you, TulsiRam, for showing us what it means to live a life of devotional service. We are so grateful for you.

One of the artists I'm most excited to welcome to Kirtan Fest Milwaukee is Rafael Buitrón. I only had the opportunity to experience Rafael's kirtan once, at TulsiRam's fundraising event in Highland Park, and I was completely blown away. He is an incredibly gifted musician and kirtan leader, the devotion in his voice is unmistakable.

What impressed me even more was getting to know a little of the person behind the music. After hearing about the work of the Pradiya Foundation, Rafael and his wife, Heidi, organized their own fundraiser to support the children we serve. That act of generosity and compassion meant the world to me and spoke volumes to me about them as people.

We're honored to have Rafael joining us at Kirtan Fest Milwaukee, and I can't wait for our community to experience the depth, joy, and devotion he brings. If you've never heard him before, you're in for something special.

We are so excited to welcome Sean Johnson & The Wild Lotus Band back to Kirtan Fest Milwaukee!

Sean and his band create the kind of music that brings people together. Their joyful and uplifting kirtan has a way of opening hearts, filling the whole space with love, and reminding us why we gather in the first place.

As much as we love hosting them for their incredible music, we also love having them here because they are some of the kindest, most genuine people you'll ever meet. They bring so much warmth, humility, and good energy wherever they go, and they are an absolute joy to spend time with.

Whether you've been singing with Sean for years or will be experiencing The Wild Lotus Band for the first time, you're in for something special. We can't wait to share another unforgettable weekend of music, community, devotion, and connection together.

Who's excited to sing with Sean this July?

Many years ago, as a moody 16-year-old, I wandered into a kirtan with Ragani at Kenwood Methodist Church on Milwaukee's East Side. That night changed my life. The mantras felt deeply familiar, and the music touched something in my soul.

Since then, Ragani has become my mentor, one of my closest friends, and my family. She has taught me so much. She also has a remarkable gift for finding ways to embarrass me in public while somehow making me laugh at the same time.

What moves me most is her humility. She paved the way for the Kirtan community in Milwaukee and has influenced countless people, often without realizing the impact she's had on so many lives. The truth is, Kirtan Fest Milwaukee would never have existed without her. Years ago, she said yes to the synchronicities that led her to start Kirtan with Ragani, which grew into the largest ongoing local kirtan gathering in the country and became a doorway into this practice for so many of us.

These days, Ragani only performs in Milwaukee about once a year, and we are so grateful she chooses Kirtan Fest as that place. ❤️

Love you, sweet friend.
