"Relevant, Modern and Groovy: Tarot Art in the 1960s and ’70s" with Renna Shesso

Twang your sitar, cosmic seeker! Tonight we’ll be channeling the spirit of Tarot’s artistic explosion in the 1960s and '70s.

Arts Deco and Nouveau, goddesses and feminism, Pop and Op art, psychedelia, hallucinatory colors and imagery...

After a look at some 20th century Tarot history that led up to that era, we’ll dive into the wild and juicy circus of Tarot creativity that sprang forth, with particular attention to some key exemplars of the time.

Mainly, we’ll have lots of AWESOME Tarot art and loads of cultural context!

Art! Ideas! Revolution!

Please bring:

• your own preferred reading deck

• note-taking materials

• good vibes, peace and love
