A very large crowd of seated participants fills a white-walled tent with blue and white scalloped drapery overhead and hanging fans. Most attendees wear white clothing and white headbands tied over their eyes, and many sit with hands pressed together. Near the front, a single figure in an orange-red robe stands on a raised platform at the centre, facing the audience. Behind the platform are several framed portraits and banners on the white backdrop, and speakers and lights line the sides. Palm trees stand at the left edge.
