About I Love Elephants

From Bend

I Love Elephants

I Love Elephants Camp is a gathering space celebrating art, animals, and connection. Our open Living Commons invites participants to explore interactive installations devoted to the creatures people love, from elephants to wolves, bees, ravens, and more. At the heart of the camp is the Gaia Dome, inspired by the spirit of Ram Dass, featuring visionary art, conversations, tea gatherings, and immersive projection experiences. Throughout the week visitors can join workshops, paint wooden elephant keepsakes, cool off in our misting oasis, and gather for music, storytelling, and art under the desert sky. Everyone is welcome to participate.
