enjoying more love. The nurturing atmosphere created by therapeutically trained
assistants helps sexual wounds heal and release. We reclaim sovereignty over our bodies.

Our Saturday ritual allows for practice of intimate and romantic arts in joyful, sacred ways
that heal the heart. Singles become their own best beloved, more available for sacred union.

Descent of the Goddess Inanna
Based on a 5,000-year-old Sumerian myth from the land that is now Iraq, this live theatrical animation features 17 large puppets, 8 actors, music, video and the dazzling richness, broad humor and erotic imagery of the ancient texts.

The Goddess of Heaven and Earth descends to visit her sister, Queen of the Underworld, while a present-day woman finds her visions becoming nightmares. In these twin journeys, the mundane and the mythic merge in a struggle toward resurrection.

Tickets are $18 general, $15 for students and seniors. For information, call 707-824-4307. For reservations, email www.brownpapertickets.com. Performances are May 16-17 and 23-24 at Sebastopol Masonic Center. 373 N Main St., all at 8 p.m.
