Vespers on the Lānai

Vespers on the Lānai is a casual event which combines great music with an opportunity for spiritual reflection. We host great local bands and intersperse the music with readings and poetry: a chance to think and connect. We explore a variety of musical genres and think broadly so those of any religious tradition or no religious tradition should feel comfortable. Vespers events are typically on the second Friday of certain months from 7-8pm, so check back on this page for updates about what's coming up! The event is free, family friendly, and open to the public. Monetary donations are gratefully accepted and are currently our main funding source for paying our musicians.

EVENT LOGISTICS:

• Picnics are welcome, both indoors and outdoors.
• Please bring a lawn chair or blanket for outdoor seating on the grass or adjacent cement area.
• If it rains, the show will go on...inside! We can easily seat 125 people indoors in our Sanctuary, with any overflow on the narrow, covered lānai which can be wet if the wind is blowing. So if the weather is iffy, please bring along your rain gear and a good dose of patience and understanding. Mahalo!
• If you feel unwell, please consider wearing a mask (especially if coughing/sneezing). Let's all be mindful of our neighbors' wellbeing (and that of others they'll come in contact with later).
