Admission

Summary

Samphire Savage | Wednesday, Feb 25 | 6 - 9p CT| Reimagine the tarot as a creative tool to move beyond fear and grief, spark innovation, and collaboratively envision new possibilities.

Description

How dare we hope for futures we cannot yet imagine? Learn how using old tools in new ways can offer a scaffolding for moving past fear and grief, and into the possibility of new paradigms. The tarot – or the use of image-heavy cards to elicit intuitions about a hidden present or future reality – began its life as simple playing cards. These simple cards were “hacked” by the practice of divination: their historical and cultural context was completely reimagined, and they were made to perform in new and unexpected ways. Join us as we “hack” the tarot again, and find solutions and deep collaboration with shared imagery. Bring your own tarot or other art-centric deck of cards (or simply a set of meaningful images) and join with others in structured play. Discover solutions to problems through honoring what must pass, and by and weaving together ideas for what's next.
