This year was Firefly Gathering’s first Annual Firefly Gathering since COVID, and our second Gathering since receiving our 501c3 nonprofit status. Over the last three years since becoming a nonprofit, Firefly Gathering has grown and is blossoming with new vigor! We are excited to share our 2022 Annual Community Report to share more about our Programs and Offerings, Goals, Overall Income and Expenses, and more. Click below to read.
May this give you hope and mobilize you this holiday season and into the new year. We can change the system, indeed we MUST. Boycott the beauracracy and buy local!
It may seem small, but remember that 3.5% is not that many!
“Because learning to get along is a life skill. Not killing each other is a life skill. Finding peace and harmony despite our differences is a primitive skill we humans need to learn.”

Lily is an artist, creator, and dreamer. Since a very young age, she has been immersed in the natural world and draws heavy inspiration from the wild. Though her medium changes frequently, Lily’s art and expression always incorporate an element of the organic and unpredictable. She got her associate in fine arts in 2023, and now volunteers at her school as a ceramic studio monitor. She hopes to open a studio of her own one day to have a place to teach and inspire others. In addition to doing commission work, Lily has been creating many graphics for The Firefly Gathering since 2019. Lily grew up in the Earthskills community from the time she was eight years old, so having the opportunity to grow and give back in so many ways has been incredibly fulfilling. No matter where she ends up, this group of people and ideas will always hold a special place in her heart.
