Summit on the Circle
A Growing Tradition
Now in its second year, Summit on the Circle is quickly becoming a cherished annual gathering celebrating culture, storytelling, and community in DeFuniak Springs. Building on the success of our inaugural Summit, this year’s event continues the tradition of bringing people together for meaningful conversations, live performances, and shared experiences rooted in history and place.
April 24-26, 2026
Join us for a weekend-long cultural gathering centered on storytelling, thoughtful conversation, and community connection, set along the historic shores of Lake DeFuniak.
Summit on the Circle brings together storytellers, historians, artists, and community voices to explore how stories, shared through history, faith, film, music, and dialogue, preserve culture and shape our understanding of American life. Throughout the weekend, attendees will enjoy engaging discussions, live performances, film and media conversations, and opportunities for meaningful dialogue in a welcoming and relaxed setting.
Designed for history enthusiasts, arts supporters, and Florida locals, Summit on the Circle offers a memorable cultural experience rooted in place, perspective, and shared stories.
