As a festival host, Alise nurtures the community - volunteers, artists, and teachers - ensuring everyone feels welcome. For her, the New Moon Festival is a space for self-expression and growth, where she explores her unique musical voice and appreciates any art form that speaks with raw honesty and authenticity. Deeply curious about the world and the human mind, Alise sees the festival as the perfect place for continuous learning - not just for herself, but for all those finding their way back to their hearts.
Gundega is responsible for curating a magical, open space at the festival, where everyone is free to roam, explore, and dive into new experiences. Using sustainable and natural materials, she creates a cozy, enchanting atmosphere that ignites joy and self-expression.
Anya crafts the festival’s online presence as a digital designer and social media manager, while also curating a nourishing, plant-based menu to be enjoyed at the event. As a musician and artist, she shares her creativity on stage each year. And as the team’s resident alien fairy, Anya sprinkles love, kindness, and a little cosmic magic into it all.
