Sirius Rising will be July 10 to 16, 2000, and the link to the place
is below.

The second international henna conference will at Sirius
Rising....as was the first conference, and we had last year was so
much fun that there's no way it's not happening again. Many people
from the Forum, lurkers and regulars got together last year, and it
would be wonderful to double that number this year.

Here's what the henna conference at Sirius Rising is:
as many people as possible who are very serious about henna meeting up
for a week, sharing meals in the banquet glade (typical dinner was
steamed clams with garlic and butter, fresh baked bread, tabouli
salad, ... at least 6 side dishes, desert...) camping together,
jumping in the hot tub at midnight, swimming, dancing, listening to
many live concerts, drumming till dawn ... and of course hennaeing
everything we can tether down. I'll do henna classes in four part
harmony. (free) I'll bring enough henna for everyone. Every evening
starting about 8, we just get comfy under a huge apple tree and henna
people as quickly as they wander in. Everyone learns LOTS because
we're interacting and hennaeing together. Nothing teaches you as
quickly as watching other people henna! There are also lots of other
classes, from intensely interesting to silly..... Sirius Rising is a
delightful week at a BEAUTIFUL campground in rural western New York
state. It's a 2 hour drive east from Cleveland, 1 1/2 hour south of
Buffalo.

Here's what the Sirius Rising henna conference is NOT: a place to make
a lot of money. When we henna, all the money goes into a pot, and
that goes for dinners in the banquet glade. (Did anyone NOT gain
several pounds? Well....Zimra didn't...and anyone else who danced and
drummed all night after eating! If you can teach two classes (contact
Roy through the website below) that will cancel out your camping fees.
If you want to vendor, contact same ... and that's cool, but you
won't have as much play time.

Any henna artist who comes to Sirius Rising can deduct all the
expenses for that week off on their taxes, form C!
