&lt;p&gt;      Good luck dude, hope you get a crowd.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don&amp;#39;t do magic that much anymore, but always enjoyed it, a wonderful art form. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;      Journey&lt;br /&gt;to the inner realms, the queer realms. Meet your guides and dance with&lt;br /&gt;spirit animals to find your power and your medicine. Reclaim your queer&lt;br /&gt;totem and honor its presence in your life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A totem is any entity&lt;br /&gt;that watches over or assists a group of people, such as a family, clan&lt;br /&gt;or tribe. Some people choose to adopt a personal spirit/animal helper,&lt;br /&gt;which has special meaning to them, and refer to this as a totem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In&lt;br /&gt;this workshop we will take a meditative journey to the queer spirit&lt;br /&gt;realm - to explore and to find inspiration. Then you will create a&lt;br /&gt;totem to take home in honor of your journey. &lt;br /&gt;(No previous experience necessary in such journey work or artistic creation.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Date: Saturday, May 16th, 2009&lt;br /&gt;Time: 2:00 PM &#8211; 4:30 PM&lt;br /&gt;Place: Studio space centrally located in San Francisco&lt;br /&gt;	(Address will be given at time of registration confirmation)&lt;br /&gt;Cost: FREE! Registration is REQUIRED - SPACE IS LIMITED.&lt;br /&gt;To Register: Please call 415-835-2117&lt;br /&gt;	Leave your name and phone number. I will return your call to confirm your registration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nick&lt;br /&gt;Venegoni is a queer artist, healer and guide. He holds a BFA in Graphic&lt;br /&gt;Design from the California College of the Arts, and an MA in Counseling&lt;br /&gt;Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies. Nick has&lt;br /&gt;practiced earth based spirituality and shamanism over the last five&lt;br /&gt;years, and is a Reiki 2 practitioner. He takes joy in listening to the&lt;br /&gt;wind and finds spirit in all that surrounds us. &lt;/p&gt;
