Native American Purification Ceremony, Friday, March 2, 2007, 8pm.  

Artist and storyteller, Standing Bear, who specializes in Lakota legends and stories, will perform a Purification Ceremony at 8pm this Friday evening at Betwixt & Between, prior to the Friday night drum jam.  This ritual cleansing of the spirit is typically used to prepare oneself to receive information from the divine, your ancestors - for any magical working.  Done in a traditional Native American tradition, no preparation is really needed other than an open mind and a desire to learn.

After ritual Standing Bear will play the traditional Courting Flute, and tell the story behind it.  If there is time left you may get lucky enough to catch a few more stories from this excellent and enchanting storyteller.  He will also answer some questions at the end about Native American Tradition.
