This Meetup Group has "Evolved" from discussion of one specific subject to the much broader, more inclusive subject of Conscious Evolution.

If you answer yes to some or all of these questions, this is what this Meetup Group is all about and ap …

Hail and well met, seeker of Faires! For many medieval-fantasy enthusiasts, a visit to a renaissance faire is the result of a convergence of an interest in history and mythology, a personal creative spark, and the drive to bring the vision of the imagination to life.

The thing Artists and Activists have in common is a passion for their work. I hope to mesh these passions in this group. Art, political and social activism have long been happy bedfellows. Think of Picasso’s Guernica Night, Susan Crile’s Abu Graib series, and more locally to Connecticut, the Cycle of Terror and Tragedy, September 11 by Graydon Parrish housed at the New Britain Museum of American Art. As they say, a picture says a thousand words and what better way to convey these kinds of messag …
