Hello dear denziens of the MGF blog!
We wish you a dewy, flowery, fertile and firey Beltane 2012! May your bonfires be bright, and your maypoles phallic, and may all the abundance of the season pour into your heart and spirit.
For those travellers and tumbleweeds out there, perhaps you’d fancy a May Day in Scotland next year at the Beltane Fire Festival?
Come and join us this Mother’s Day May 13th at 7 pm at the fabulous Gas Station Theatre for the Crone’s Cabaret. Hosted by the amazing Deb Patterson and Steve McIntyre featuring an entire evening brimming and bountiful with spinners, singers, dancers, aerialists, poets and even a marching band.
We have some incredible creative abundance arriving this year for our second annual cabaret fundraiser, featuring the likes of Martha Brooks and Dennis Chan, Chandra Mayor, The Au Set Bellydance Imporium, Bacca, Gaia Pente, The Flaming Trolleys, Liz Cooper, Beth Martens and the Kirtan Calling Band and a whole cauldron full of amazing circus performers, singers and dancers.
Tickets are ten dollars and available now. You can purchase them in advance at the Gas Station Theatre or contact us directly at manitobagoddessfestival@gmail.com. Come and celebrate a jubilant juicy joyful Mother’s Day Night with us and set your Wild Crone Energy alight!!

We discovered a strange and beautiful little site, tucked away in the far corner of the interweb, and just had to share it with you. Amazing artist Yelena Yampolsky has created something gorgeous. Go, enjoy! It’s divine!
"Kali" by Lisa Iris
Festival-supporter, incredible artist, and beautiful soul Lisa Iris does it again. Once again, she has donated an incredible print which will be auctioned off at our Spring Fundraiser. Stay tuned for details on that one! And in the meantime, why don’t you head over to Crystal Wind and show some good, old, Manitoba Goddess Fest love?
So, here we are, a few weeks shy of our sophomore edition, and we are all starting to set our sights on the 2012 Festival. Perhaps that optimism helps us keep motivated as the hectic pace increases to insanely manic. Perhaps we just like multi-tasking. Whatever the truth may be, we’ve set up this quick teaser website, to help whet your appetite for next year’s edition.
See you in September!
MGF
