Opening the Iron Garden 1/30/15 Newark, NJ

[The Madame X]

I am very proud to announce that last Friday Herr Wulfsunus and I together with Traveler Asura-MacPhee, Finna Beruthiel DeElf, Asif Murad and Blueeyesoulfof Ra Horakhty hosted the first installment of the Iron Garden - an evening of socialization, education, creative expression, charity-work, networking and fun!
We welcomed Houses, Covens, Dens and Ronin Independents that are Vampires, Witches, Therians, Otherkin, Black Swans, life-stylers, poets and scholars alike. And had approximately 40 in our midst.

The event began at 10 to Midnight for all to Meet Our Tribe!

Plus Live Altar Ritual with The Dreaming - Thank you BlackWolf, Hesperus, Wulfsunus, Finna and Louisa for your beautiful addition.

All demonstrated respect and fraternity toward all others in attendance and adhered to the encouraged to dress semi-formally (no jeans, t-shirts, or sneakers), creatively (Fetish, Goth, Pinup, Formal, Lingerie), or simply all black minimum.
Admission to our gathering downstairs was Free. But QXT's had a $10 cover charge - ladies however got in free before 11pm and there were great drink specials too! QXTs is located at 248 Mulberry Street, Newark, NJ This was a 21 and over event only!
Most did manage to find their way downstairs to our Nightkind Haven or danced the night away on the main floor with DJs Ash and Damian Plague, as they spun the best new wave and 80's music.

I want to particularly thank my BlackSwan Miss LaRue for contributing the beautiful Iron Garden Logo and our BlackSwan Gavin for designing the stunning Flyers thru Image Evolution.

Wulfsunus and I thank those of you who braved the cold and attended our first gathering on Friday Night. Some came from as South Jersey, PA and our very own Dedicant Hesperus and Oceanus ventured up all the way from Virginia! Your friendship and support are certainly appreciated!
We began to save the endangered NJ Big Brown Bats and raised $18 for the cause!
I trust all enjoyed the lovely Ceremony, the Cake and the Company.
We are looking for featured presenters for upcoming gatherings, so let us know if you or someone you know is interested.
We are also interested in ideas and suggestions on how we can make our gatherings a more fulfilling experience for you.

Next month, Friday, February 20th we bring you from PA Lady DarkRose and Ludavik from DarkRose Journal, The North Jersey Literary Series Poets and Tarot with Genoveva Rossi, plus a Conclave discussion on Voodoo and much more!
I can't wait till next!
