a movement to reclaim + celebrate women's initiations
RITES OF PASSAGE is...
A living museum,
A ritual art house,
A home of belonging, healing & remembrance,
And, a movement celebrating women's lives
& initiations from birth through death.
Each 'ROOM OF CURE' in the house
represents a stage or rite of passage
using ritual performance, installation &
multimedia artwork.
Appearing as live, public events, our work
continues to live on virtually, in film, and eventually
in print in our Rites of Passage book.
Collaboratively created by women from diverse
backgrounds, ages & ethnicities,
RITES OF PASSAGE is
a living, breathing invocation...
for the healing of our lineages,
the weaving of our many colors
and a fertile future for the generations to come.
Together, we are housing
THE COLLECTIVE FEMALE SOUL
I Never truly acknowledged the fact that I was female until about the 2nd room, and realized maybe its not so bad as I thought."

OUR COLLECTIVE FUTURE DEPENDS
ON THE STORIES WE TELL...
Creativity is not a solitary movement. That is its power. Whatever is touched by it, whoever hears it, sees it, senses it, knows it, is fed. A single creative act has the potential to feed a continent. One creative act can cause a torrent to break through stone."
