💀🕯️ The Veil Thins. The Ancestors Call. 🕯️💀

They say that for one night, the roads open and the two worlds touch. Step into the liminal space where the vibrant traditions of Día de Mu***os meet the powerful rhythms of Fèt Gede.

This is more than a celebration—it is a ritual. A gathering to honor the wisdom, the humor, and the love of those who have crossed over. Our altars are prepared, the marigolds glow, and the drums are waiting.

Will you answer the call of the ancestors? Join us for a night of remembrance, resurrection, and revelry that transcends boundaries.

Join us tonight at International House Hotel!
We gather once more to honor Marie Laveau in the traditional Headwashing Ceremony—a form of Vodou baptism that cleanses, blesses, and renews. This is a powerful night of reverence and ancestral connection.

Wear all white, with a white scarf to cover your head.
Bring an offering that Marie might delight in: white candles, flowers, Creole foods, sweet black coffee in a white enamel cup, hair ribbons, hairdresser tools, Vodou charms, or images of Marie herself.

OR
Join us in sacred celebration on June 23rd at 7 PM, along the banks of Bayou St. John (just past the Magnolia Bridge, New Orleans).

St. John’s Eve. This Saturday.

A flame. A feather. A quiet prayer whispered over herbal tonic. John’s Way, crafted to stir your spirit. Offerings burn. Magic dances in the smoke.
Meet us at the crossroads of tradition + transgression.
