Event Description

Rites of Passage Schools 2012 

with GILLY ADAMS   and   SUE GILL

 

www.deadgoodguides.com

 

 

                    Spring: Tuesday June 12th – Friday June 15th

These intensive 4 day workshops will examine the Hows and Whys of ceremony and celebration in a practical and experiential way.  We will investigate how both positive and negative life events can be distilled into myth and poetry and create meaningful rituals to contain them. Gilly Adams and Sue Gill will offer insights into the cognitively rich world of the secular celebrant, sharing their experience, offering theory, information, and – they hope – inspiration. Most crucially, the workshops will be shaped to fulfil the needs and aspirations of participants so there will be plenty of opportunities to learn and practise many aspects of the craft of creating ceremony – both public and private - in a safe environment.

Food is always a key element in ceremony and celebration and, since we will be eating lunch and supper together, feasting will be a special theme. 

The working day will be from 10a.m. to 9p.m. except on the last day when we will finish at 2p.m.
