You are invited to a sunset magick ritual bonfire garden party, open mic poetry sharing circle, & vegan potluck to celebrate Crowleymass & discuss occult matters & read some poetry ✨ Sunday Oct 12 from 5 to 7 pm in the Woodstock Shivastan Poetry Ashram Bookshop secret garden πŸ”₯
BUT this gathering is not just about Aleister Crowley - the theme is the OCCULT - alchemy, tarot, alternative spiritualities, pagan, Wiccan, spirits, witches, etc - any poems or performance relating to the occult! πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€
Please bring something to share: BYOB, veg snacks, drinks, firewood, rituals, poems, songs, stories, etc!
The Shivastan Poetry Ashram is a community based independent book shop, art gallery, giftshop & grassroots co-operative promoting poetry, friendship, wisdom & compassion for all beings located in central Woodstock NY. We are now OPEN 1 to 6 pm everyday at 6 Sgt Richard Quinn Drive Woodstock NY - the bright orange cabin behind The Mothership ⭐️ please stop by any afternoon & browse the thousands of new, used & rare books; art & oddities; unusual jewelry, crafts & gifts from India & Nepal.
Frequent gatherings involve an outdoor sunset bonfire in a beautiful secret garden; an informal poetry/music/story sharing circle; & usually a vegetarian potluck.
The Woodstock Shivastan Poetry Ashram was started by poet & publisher Shiv Mirabito - it is loosely based on Ed Sanders' LES community Peace Eye Bookshop, Allen Ginsberg's Cherry Valley Committee on Poetry, & Angus Maclise & Ira Cohen’s Spirit Catcher Bookshop on Freak Street in Kathmandu. It is the home base of the small press Shivastan Press {Woodstock~Kathmandu} which has published limited edition poetry chapbooks & broadsides on handmade paper in Nepal since 1997 by some of the most exciting poets in America. It is our 28th anniversary this year!
