GRANTS, DONORS, & NEWS

I've been hard at work on The Easter Island Project, working with the beautiful "seeds" you fabulous people have created for the project. I'm also setting up an intimate Participation Tour for Seattle, New York City, and Oakland (Portland and Eugene dates TBD). Keep reading if you'd like to host an event or fundraiser, or become a donor.

The Easter Island Project is made possible by individual donations, the Tarot Reading Fundraiser, and a travel sponsorship from the Viator Travelblog. Thank you so much, everybody, for supporting my work. Funding is still needed; as the project grows more interesting and goes more places, it becomes more costly.

Please drop me a line at magdalen23 (! at) gmail.com if you'd like to join in. You could:

• Make a financial donation (non-profit receipt; specify "Easter Island")
  
• Become a business or organizational sponsor
  
• Buy a Tarot reading for yourself or a friend
• Host an Easter Island gathering, reading, or workshop -- at your venue, bookstore, college, or in your own home
  
• Volunteer
• Come to an event -- or participate in the project via email or postal mail

In other news, I've received from RACC, the Regional Arts & Culture Council, a 2009 Professional Development Grant. Thank you, RACC and Prof Dev panelists!

TAROT READINGS FUNDRAISER: HELP OUT 2GQ & THE EASTER ISLAND PROJECT

dear people of the world & beyond:

wouldn't you or one of your loved ones simply adore getting a genuine, proper Tarot reading as a gift? why yes, you would! my psychic powers predict it.

readings may be redeemed in person or over the phone. please see seedcake.etsy.com for more info & to purchase your gift certificate. let the mystical mayhem begin!

i've been reading Tarot for nearly two decades, have written about Tarot and other oracles for publication, and i am the creator of the Burning Tarot deck.

the Easter Island Project is an ongoing work inspired by my personal experience and subsequent research into childlessness in our culture. all Tarot proceeds benefit the non-profit arts and literary organization 2GQ—specifically, computer related expenses—and The Easter Island Project—specifically, expenses for related travels to San Francisco, Seattle, and of course, Easter Island, Chile, in the South Pacific. non-financial support is also welcome.

xo and thank you...
