Event description

MycoFest returns August 2nd-4th with its 10th annual mushroom and arts festival, where we’ll be showcasing the beauty of nature, with an educational focus on mycology and DNA barcoding. Join us for an immersive weekend, 3 days full of educational workshops, guided forays, artistic experiences and sessions, cooking demonstrations, and more. Since 2015, MycoFest has brought the Mushroom & Arts Festival we so well know and love to the East coast, choosing a different geographical location each year as our host and diverse background.

This year, MycoFest will be hosted on RhoneyMeade Arboretum & Sculpture Garden in Centre Hall, PA, just minutes outside of State College, PA. To learn more about our event and location, check out our site: https://www.mycofest.net

MycoFest 2024 is a festival focused on education and ecological literacy, where we prioritize time with nature, new ideas, multidimensional perspectives and theories, and create new realities. We are honored and excited to provide this space for the evolution, education, and healing of our community, and the world.

MycoSymbiotics is a Decentralized Citizen Research Effort put on by William Padilla-Brown. Mycosymbiotics has its Head Research Facility based in New Cumberland, Pennsylvania. We are a team of dedicated environmental regeneration enthusiasts, on a mission to better our local Ecology and Community though the use of Science! Like the mycelial network, we branch out radically covering all aspects of Symbiotic biological/sociological function.Since 2015, MycoSymbiotics has kept its focus on collecting native Pennsylvania strains of gourmet and medicinal mushrooms from the wild to study in controlled environments. Since summer 2021, MycoSymbiotics has also made its Algal Culture Collection available. MycoSymbiotics hosts and annual festival the first weekend of August every year focused on increasing the ecological literacy of the attendees and the surrounding communities. Breaking down the name Myco-Fungi and Symbiotic- a close cooperative or interdependent relationship, we strive to develop mutually beneficial relationships with those around us and those we work with. In the big, wild world there are a lot of important players that get overlooked. Our team is focused on putting the unnoticed players into the spotlight by researching their potentials for Ecological Regeneration.
