Ancestor Feast                                     Saturdays, 10/17-11/7


Because of pandemic,
in-person Ancestor Feast must compost into the earth.

But in the heap of its remains are
big, fat seeds
that will sprout in all directions!

Will you be a sprout this year?

Picture
We can't come together around a table laden with our ancestor's favorite goodies...
Can we savor them at home, with family and housemates?
We can't collaborate to build a work of art
around the images and tokens of our departed family, friends, pets...

Can we each decorate a corner at home to remember them?
We can't sit around a campfire together to tell their stories...
But we can sit around a virtual campfire!  There, we can do all kinds of things!
Picture
Join us around our virtual campfire for an exploration of ancestry on Saturdays 10/17-11/7 at 2 pm.
  • Who are our ancestors?
  • What are their stories?
  • What have they given us?
  • How do we feel about them?
  • How will we remember them?
  • ​What kind of ancestors do we want to be?
We'll consider these questions together, and also take time to explore the topic of cultural appropriation as we build toward a final day of celebration.
