Lotus Education & Arts Foundation

Save the date for the 25th annual Lotus World Music & Arts Festival on September 27-30, 2018!

The Lotus Education & Arts Foundation is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 organization based in Bloomington, Indiana (est. 1994). Our mission is to create opportunities to experience, celebrate, and explore the diversity of the world’s cultures, through music and the arts.

Lotus fulfills this mission through three major programmatic areas – our flagship music festival, arts-education outreach, and visual arts. At its heart, Lotus is about making the world a better place by inviting dialogue, by building bridges through curiosity and discovery and conversation, and most of all by inspiring human connections that transcend geography, religion, language, and ethnicity. Since its inception, Lotus has brought the wider world to the doorstep of hundreds of thousands of young people and adults throughout southern Indiana.
