November 1- 2, 2025
Portland, Oregon

With heavy hearts, we must share that the Evolve & Unite Festival scheduled for November 1st and 2nd has been cancelled.

​

Our vision has always been to bring people together for healing and community transformation—especially around mental health and collective wellbeing, specifically to the city of Portland. However, as a nonprofit organization, we were unable to secure the necessary support and funding from local and state leadership, mental health advocates, and key community organizations here in Oregon. Despite our repeated efforts to reach out, there was no meaningful response or engagement. Without this foundational support, it was simply not possible to bring the festival to life at the scale and quality it deserved.

​

This decision was not made lightly. We are deeply grateful to every person who believed in this vision and walked alongside us with love and commitment. We envisioned this festival as a way to bring people together—especially during a time of great uncertainty.

​

We hope that Portland’s leadership, along with others across the state, will recognize the importance of bringing the community together around healing and mental health, and provide the support that such efforts truly require. 

​

Thank you for your understanding, your support, and your shared belief in the power of coming together for healing and transformation.

​

With gratitude,
The Evolve & Unite Team
