Feast of Brigid Sunday Jan 30 at The VORTEX in Austin

Sunday January 30, in the Yard at The VORTEX, 2307 Manor Rd.

Gate opens at 6, ritual starts at 6:30. Arrive between 6 and 6:30 to visit Brigid's Well.
#20 Manor/Riverside bus stops near The VORTEX.

Our intention: We cleanse ourselves in the healing waters of Brigid's Well, and we forge our will in Brigid's cauldron to speak our truth and be heard.

Please bring
- food to share for the potluck feast after the ritual (finger foods preferred; bring your own re-usable plates and utensils), and
- an item (non-perishable food, clothing, baby and toddler supplies, etc.) to donate for Safe Place (http://www.safeplace.org).

Dress for the weather. Parental discretion is advised in bringing children, as there will be an open fire, and the main part of the ritual may not engage young children.

Admission to the ritual is free, but love gifts to support the magic of Tejas Web and the art of The VORTEX are much appreciated.

Please respect that all Tejas Web events are drug- and alcohol-free.
