Phaaa Gathering Today - Indigenous exceeded Non Indigenous

Wow today we welcomed phaaa artists from Mildura, Leo Male, Aunty Barb, Paula and Holly Walker for such a memorable occassion. In addition we welcomed Lakota John, an American Indian on the Sacred Path who will perform an American Indian healing ceremony at our Planetary Healing Day event later in the year - 21st December 2012.
Lunch was full of laughs with all the excitement in a very crowded Galleon Cafe and two indigenous paintings were sold on the day of Paula Walker and Sharon Kirby's art work.

Point Nepean Healing Ceremony

It has been another busy week and life is happening.

Need to report with such short notice last week a couple of the Planetary Artists managed to be at the truly amazing smoke healing ceremony and meditation at Point Nepean on the weekend.

It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with the bay and the Mornington Peninsula Interfaith Network. Point Nepean is a sacred site for woman.

The walk was lead by Gunditjamara Elder, Uncle Lionel Lauch.

Phaaa Healing the Bay - Artists' Celebration - at the Galleon Cafe

The Galleon Cafe was busy today and people arrived at different times. Appologies for the confusion. The idea was for artists to have a gathering and the public to meet them. It was impossible to have a formal opening because festival time is so overcrowded. Let us know if you would like another event to meet the artists and we could arrange one after the St Kilda festival.
Disappointed we missed some people like Mara, Mary, Anne, Verity and Adrian. However to prove some of us were there a photo is posted below of some of the artists at the celebration,  phaaa Mia

Please note extreme weather conditions happening - around 2pm high 30's tropical weather and upon leaving a couple of hours later after heavy rain cold winter weather needing something warm to put on.
