DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Heavy M.\nMusicians: Yannick Rafalimanana and Skaist
 ė Dikšaitytė\n\nMemorial Day is all about honoring those who have passe
 d in the process of serving others. Building off of this ritual\, we've pu
 t together a themed permablitz for the Sunday & Monday of Memorial Day wee
 kend.\n\nThis permablitz is a little bit different: we'll be working on th
 e land in silence\, and inviting all to bring in memories to share of thos
 e who have passed\; especially those who were committed to serving others.
  Silence can be a powerful tool for connecting with the land and our ances
 tors\, and is a common practice used to honor those who have passed on fro
 m this world. Working on the Earth in silence is an incredible way to get 
 in touch with your body\, your thoughts\, your emotions\, and to be presen
 t for her wisdom. Sometimes she speaks so softly you won't hear her if you
  don't turn off your chatterbox.\n\nHowever\, it wouldn't be a permablitz 
 without some joy and volume\, so we are also presenting an extra-special c
 oncert the evening before the work day. One of the founding fore-fathers o
 f Groupmuse (and one of the most talented musicians we've ever known)\, a 
 Malagasy-French pianist named Yannick Rafalimanana\, is coming through Cla
 ymont with his brilliant violinist of a partner named Sky. They're in from
  Berlin and they're going to make some breathtaking noise in the Mansion o
 n Sunday evening\, the 26th.\n\nThe next day\, we'll wake up to an easy mo
 rning with group meditation and do some activities to get in the zone as w
 e build up to our work session on the land in silence. We'll be focusing t
 he work in the Barn Gardens. Once we're done working\, we'll head back up 
 to the Mansion for a BBQ cookout in classic Memorial Day fashion in the la
 te afternoon\, and wrap it all up with a group clean-up and closing circle
 .\n\nHere's the schedule:\n\nSunday\, May 26\n\n+ Folks arrive around 7 pm
  on Sunday to settle & we'll gather for the groupmuse in the Mansion\n+ Af
 ter the music\, we'll have an opening circle + campfire + music + dancing\
 n+ Sleepover in the Mansion (must bring your own sheets) or camp outside\n
 \nMonday\, May 27\n\n+ Wake up to a meditation and relaxing morning\n+ 
 Head to the Barn Gardens to do conscious labor on the land in silence\n+ M
 emorial Day BBQ back at the Mansion!\n+ Closing circle & clean-up\n\nJoin 
 us to get our bodies moving on the land\, connect deeply with the wonderfu
 l folks who show up for these intimate weekends\, celebrate art and life t
 hrough the gifts of some supremely talented musicians\, and presence those
  who have passed with sacred silence.\n\nIf you're coming to any part of t
