Sedona AZ (February 8, 2012) – The Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park in West Sedona has become a favorite place for both locals and visitors the world over who chose Sedona as a spiritual destination. Thousands visit the Stupa yearly. Securing the Stupa now and for future generations is the focus of multiple fundraising efforts.

The not-to-be-missed entertainment line up features the enchanting sounds of virtuoso flamenco guitarist, Eric Miller, a Sedona favorite, and singer songwriter, Adalia Tara, back in Sedona from the East Coast and wowing audiences locally.
“We have really wonderful items to bid on…fine jewelry, paintings/art by well-know local artists, personal and business services, adventures and more! Local Sedona businesses, galleries, restaurants and individuals have been very kind and generous. We even have a live art sculpture demonstration. Many in our community love the Stupa and count on it being there every day for them. We hope lots of people can make it. It’s going to be a terrific community event to help make sure that the Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park remain as is for decades to come,” said Alika Middleton, one of the organizers.
