Happy Friday + Spring Equinox!
Have you been spending too much time on social media, + craving connections with people you can hug, smile at, + talk to face-to-face?
Lately this has been coming up for me, + I'd like to share a lil' story....
During my 20's I traveled cross country a few times in a biodiesel VW camper van, visiting + staying in intentional communities along the way. I took a lot of pictures, + many of them appear in a book I wrote, Open-Eyed Heart-Wide Haggadah.
Writing + creating this book was my way of reclaiming my heritage after many years of spiritual seeking (+ finding!).
(It's an unconventional ritual guide for the Jewish holiday of Passover. ;))
And now, people from all over the country + globe are buying it on Etsy + Amazon! (Let your friends know, if you like! ;))
It's also available in several independent bookstores in California, Arizona, Georgia, + Hawaii! + was recently featured on HuffPost! ;)
All this to say, I have an upcoming event/ dinner party with my book, + you're invited! ;)
Imagine yourself lounging on a Persian rug, seated on pillows, or handcrafted wooden chairs... surrounded by art, sculptures, clothing + jewelry from all around the world. Succulent plant arrangements everywhere.
I'm so honored to be doing an event at a magical place called Star Tribes, which I discovered on an Artist's Date recently.
And dining on olives, oranges, handmade "matzah," apples + walnuts, homemade soup, + drinking grape juice + wine, each item blessed + honored for its ritual purpose.
The event is called 4/4 Passover for Peace, + it's a catered (Debra-style) Ritual Dinner + Celebration of Spring, Liberation, + Peace on the Planet.
In the background is some live music, guitar, + everyone breaks out singing + laughing. You come alone, but leave with 15 new friends.
It's Saturday, April 4th, from 5 - 8 pm, in my neighborhood!
I hope you can come! ;)
