Seed Circle: Ceremonial Open Mic

  • Harlem, New York City United States (map)

**This gathering is a fundraiser for All Kings. Thank you for contributing generously!**

Part ceremony, part open mic, Seed Circle is a sacred space to plant seeds of your dreams and desires for the Earth and human collective. You’re invited share the fullness of your heART: your honest emotions and the raw, creative, depths of your soul, whatever form of artistic expression that takes.

We’ll make space to hold the full range of our pain, grief and emotional reactions to the current state of human civilization and transmute this powerful energy into hope, care and vision for a beautiful future. For within the depths of all pain is a seed of desire: the desire for things to be different. And your soul’s desires are a map guiding us towards a beautiful world.

At Seed Circle, you’re invited to bring songs, poems, music, and prayers that express your specific desires for the type of world and community you want to experience. You can share an original work or a piece from another artist that resonates with you.

All are welcome! No formal artistic or performance experience is required - just a willingness to lean into vulnerability and share from the heart. A short prayer or even a single word is perfect!

Doors will close promptly at 7:15pm and no latecomers will be admitted to honor the sacred space of the Seed Circle. Please attend only if you can arrive on time and stay for the full duration of the experience 🙏
