The Indian River Flute Circle and Native Heritage Gathering, Inc.
proudly present the fourteenth annual gathering of the Native
Rhythms Festival. This three day festival during Native
American Heritage Month honors the culture of the indigenous
peoples of the Americas through music, and especially the music
of the Native American Flute.
Welcome to the cyberhome of the Native
Rhythms Festival. All available information regarding
our fourteenth annual festival will be available here. Please feel
free to browse.
While we transition this website from the 2021 festival to the
2022 festival, you will find pages from both years'
events. You can tell when a page has been updated to this year's
information by the presence of our 2022 logo (with the red wolf, as on this page) replacing our
2021 logo (with the rising Phoenix). Check
back from time to time as we update our information.
We invite you to help us get the word out about our festival.
Click here or on the poster image to the left to access an 8
1/2" x 11" PDF file containing our mini-poster (filesize:
379 KB). Feel free to make and distribute copies wherever
you think they might be seen by anyone who could be interested
in joining us in Wickham Park in Melbourne on November 11-13.
This website is a living entity that will grow throughout the process of planning this year's festival.
