The Garden Salon

Loving hearts are maintained through practice and reciprocation.

Despair is all around so many of us who have been tuned in to the horrific acts being committed in Palestine by israelis and americans, Congo by the M23 mercenaries backed by israelis, Sudan by the RSF and SAF backed by the UAE. And if you are reading this you are still here, you are still with us.

I’m overwhelmed, how bout you? I’m also grateful, still curious, and through it all still hopeful. I feel a duty to be hopeful. My privilege and accesses to land, food, water, shelter allow me to create. My fury, hate and disgust also have a place in creating. So I keep making and I have some offers for you.

new erotica sessions:

Sex Revolution. How does the intimacy of sex, foreplay, fantasizing create liberation despite oppression and conflict? In the Sex Revolution Erotica Sessions, you are invited to explore different imagination exercises around being free, sex, and sexuality.

You have the freedom to drop in as you please each Thursday night at 7 PM starting August 7th, 2025. Each session is priced on a sliding scale from $12-$22. Bring a friend, bring a relative, bring your crush.

Introducing Land Lessons

As a land steward, the planet is my teacher. The first Land Lesson offering is Bats and having Our Own Backs. In this two hour session, we will learn about some aspects of bat socializing, migration, and family behaviors. What can these beautiful, demonized relatives teach us about community building, nourishment, and winning over oppression? Come find out by registering for the Land Lesson here!

You’re art and imagination can change the world, practice and apply it as often as you can.

In Solidarity.
