When we collaborate with you on a Signature Event, you and your guests can expect an experience unlike any other. We provide the essentials you are used to plus surprising & thoughtful details that will make your event stand out. Learn more about our past Signature Event collaborations below. Herstory Retold with Elizabeth Lesser In this salon-style evening celebrating the power of women's stories, guests were invited to immerse themselves with women who are championing change in our collective future, We were joined by award-winning author & Oprah SuperSoul 100 Member, Elizabeth Lesser, among Lydia Ruyle's Goddess Banners in a pop-up exhibit entitled "God.As.Herself" curated by Katie Hoffner. This extraordinary evening wove together lively conversation, empowering images and the nourishing embrace of aligned community. These sacred images and powerful stories retold through a feminine lens offered an opportunity to "unlearn" the patriarchal conditioning that pervades our culture and our lives. 1/5 Marianne Williamson @ ALTAR As part of her presidential campaign, Marianne Williamson shared her courageous and inspiring message of transformation and love here at ALTAR. Behind the scenes, in the most seamless & co-creative flow, we worked with Marianne's team to coordinate all the details in three short days. The results spoke for themselves with a fully packed house, and Marianne sharing that she, "never wants to leave this place" at the end of the evening. An Evening with Louie Schwartzberg In partnership with the Illinois Psychedelic Society, ALTAR hosted acclaimed director, Louie Schwartzberg, in an evening talk discussing the magic of mushrooms and incorporating the wisdom of nature in your everyday life This intimate evening encouraged enlivened discourse on the intelligence of nature, expanding psychedelic literacy, protecting the planet and creating a better future. Goddesses in Residence From the New Moon on December 4th, 2021 through the spring Equinox in March of 2022, our community had the extraordinary opportunity to experience an inspiring and transformative art installation honoring the divine goddess in all her forms - including in each of us. The Goddess Banners were created by legendary artist, Lydia Ruyle, who affectionately called the banners, the “girls." She created more than 300 banners that depict original images of the divine feminine across continents and cultures. They have flown at sacred sites to empower, teach and share their stories around the globe. Lydia's niece, Katie Hoffner, brought the banners to ALTAR for an extended exhibit we called Goddesses-in-Residence.
