Symposium Weekend Events in Portland

As you plan to join us in Portland for our 2015 Symposium (April 11), be sure to include enough time to join us for special free events before and after our day program.  On Friday night the program begins with a special event held in conjunction with the Black Earth Institute:

7:30 pm at Red Lion Hotel on the River–free and open to the public

“Can the Blessed Virgin hold the heart of goddess women?” A celebration and reading from Patricia Monaghan’s Mary:  A Life in Verse with Michael McDermott.  If anyone has tales of the hold of Mary, come prepared to share.

 

And after the day of presentations, we’re happy to announce a wealth of talents hosted by the Women of We’Moon:
