Rest Fest
Details
Rest Your Body. Recharge Your Brain. Renew Your Spirit.
Rest Fest is a free and family friendly wellness festival offering activations to relax your nervous system and opportunities for fun and play. On the last day of North 2 Shore - Newark, Rest Fest emerges as much-needed pause away from the city’s hustle and bustle. Attendees will journey through guided meditation, reiki, restorative yoga, breathwork, stress-reduction strategies, and holistic health practices that promise to align body, mind, and spirit.
Rest Fest will be hosted in the world class Newark Museum of Art and will culminate in a high vibrational dance party where participants will be invited to release their stress, move their bodies and revel in the spirit of fun and community.
We can't wait to see you!
