Join the Great Green Being and others for an Earth Day Gathering at CitySpace in Old Town Hall - 43 Main St. Easthampton, MA. We will gather in the Blue Room at 1pm-and  sing songs and honor the Earth, Air, Fire and Water. Followed by a closing circle to share about how much we love the Earth and share our visions for activist art actions in the coming year! Costumes are welcome. 

The gathering is still on but now inside! Because of rain we'll have a circular journey with an elemental trickster ceremony in the Blue Room at City Space with newly joining Glenn Smith and drummers! And Stephen Katz!
