***********Save the date for BeanStock Music Festival 9/12/2020*********
BeanStock is a sober music festival!
BeanStock is an annual fundraiser for The Sun Will Rise Foundation. The festival remembers the life of Nick Bean and all those we have lost to substance use disorder, supports those families with loved ones still with active substance use disorder, celebrates those in recovery and promotes prevention. With this festival we hope to raise awareness about the ongoing opioid epidemic and lessen the stigma, while having a super fun sober event.
To become a sponsor, perform or have a resource at the 2020 festival, please email robyn@thesunwillrise.org
