Gather traces the history and contemporary practice of women's circles. Over sixty contributors share their wisdom through poetry, prose, and artwork to reflect on what women's circles are and why they matter. This diverse and inclusive compendium of contemporary women's wisdom is bound to become a much-loved handbook, providing inspiration, wisdom, and practical guidance. Women's circles have played an important part in women's cultural history--from sewing circles to the consciousness raising groups of the 1970s and ancient and modern red tents for menstruating women. Opening with an introduction by Womancraft Publishing founder Lucy H. Pearce, who compiled the anthology, Gather traces the history and contemporary practice of women's circles. Over sixty contributors--authors, activists, artists, community builders, priestesses, mothers, and grandmothers--ranging in age from fourteen to over seventy share their wisdom on what women's circles are and why they matter, sharing reflections on best practice and inspiration on how to create your own.
