​

This winter, the MCPA will honor the Divine Feminine in Her many forms, through a sacred fusion of art, theatre and song, through Yuletide and beyond. 

​

Mother Night ("Modranicht"), the first of the twelve nights of Yule, marks a time betwixt the last of the old remaining year and the new year to come, a "non-year" time when the veil between the worlds grows thin and passable. The tradition of "Mother Night" venerates all ancestral Mothers (in Norse, the dísir-- "the goddesses" or "the ladies"). The power of the Mothers renews the Sun in the darkest time of year. 

​

"Mother Night: the Goddess in Winter" weaves the themes of myth, Goddess reverence, and creative renewal in the winter season, with an invitation to our audience to celebrate and connect with their matriarchal lineage. Libations and hearth-warming food will be featured during opening and closing nights, and other special events are to be announced during the exhibition schedule. (See the Leaping Laughter Lodge calendar page or facebook.com/MPLSCPA for further details.)
