Jasmin Morrell, Sacred Space Co-Coordinator, Talks About What Wild Goose Means to Her

Last updated on: April 26, 2012 at 11:09 am By wildgoosefestival

In June of 2011, a few weeks before the inaugural Festival was slated to occur, a friend had turned her backyard into a watery playground of blow up pools, sprinklers, and a giant, inflatable water-slide for her daughter’s fourth birthday party. I slumped in my lawn chair, wilted by the humidity, envying the 20 or so splashing preschoolers who were so blissfully unaware of the heat. Glancing around the yard, I saw most of the parents in the same heat-defensive... Read more

Kevin Alton Writes A Note About Youth & The Goose

Last updated on: April 24, 2012 at 4:17 am By wildgoosefestival

I have always chased the conversation. I have a science-fiction brain. That sounds way cooler than it is. What I mean is that since I learned to read I’ve always sought out stories that took what was considered normal and flipped it or tweaked it in some way purely for the sake of talking about it that way for a moment. I didn’t emerge from all of that reading believing that aliens had stolen 40 seconds from every minute in... Read more

Wild Goose Announces Regional Events

Last updated on: April 10, 2012 at 1:53 pm By wildgoosefestival

At Wild Goose, we believe when the programming ends, the festival and its values continue. One way we hope to extend the festival in 2012 is to create opportunities to connect with Wild Goose friends throughout the year. Along these lines, prior to this year’s festival, we will be encouraging regional gatherings in cities around the U.S. These nights, which will be locally and informally organized, will include local music, food and community. The first five events will be held... Read more
