Iconoclastic Author Ken Summers in Salem Promoting a New Book

A Ghostly Theme, an Unexpected Twist

Cornerstone Books of Salem, Ma. will host visionary author Ken Summers on the evening of Thursday, October 15th. He’ll be present from 7-9pm to sign copies of his new book, Queer Hauntings: the very first book which tackles the subject matter of Gay and Lesbian Ghosts.

This prototypical book is the brainchild of a humble Paranormal Investigator hailing from Cleveland, Ohio. He will be reading from the book, taking questions from attendees and explaining the unique difficulties he encountered while researching a book for which no template, precedent or subtle cue had been crafted. This is an interactive reading and Book Signing, the audience is encouraged to ask questions. There will be no fee charged. Casual dress is appropriate; details regarding location and time are typed below:

10am – 10pm, October 1 – November 1, 2009 at the Museum Place Mall
The Annual Psychic Fair and Witchcraft Expo is held at the Museum Place Mall, located conveniently at 176 Essex Street along the cobblestone outdoor walking mall in the heart of Salem’s downtown. Admission is free!

I am very busy with obligations to work several parties. Still, I am taking emails from new clients. My work with Terry Milton for the Hammond Castle last month was fun and fulfilling.

HERE IS WHAT I HAVE PLANNED TO DATE:

13 September, PSYCHIC FAIR. Location is Dark Star Philosophia, Rockport, Ma.

October, FESTIVAL OF THE DEAD PSYCHIC FAIR, for the duration of the month. Salem, Ma.

25 October I will host the Festival’s Annual Seance at the Hawthorne Hotel. Salem, Ma.

September/October magazine article to be published. I gave the interview last month.

(Tentative) MID-October I will be helping Ken Summer’s while he is in Salem to promote his new book.

EVENT HOSTS: Anthony Haden-Guest, Karlin Mann, Susan Anton, Michael Musto, Dee Finley and others. The most inspired and inspirational figures of the New York art and Journalism scenes will be on hand to celebrate life, and raise funds to assist a fine photographer, Layla Love, who is currently battling a potentially blinding medical condition.

If you are wondering why I am blogging about this event, it is out of an authentic desire to see that as many people make it to “Through Your Eyes” as is possible. I will be at the event, donating my time and services in order to provide Psychic Readings of a wide variety to all who are interested in sitting with a psychic/medium. I am honored to have been asked to donate my time to this cause and event, and am indebted to Dee Finley for extending the offer. I am very glad to count this wonderful person amongst my friends.

Aside from psychic readings, there will be an impressive array of visual and sonic art for the attendee to absorb. Live painting, musical performances and an installation of some 200 photographs taken by Layla Love will be there for all to interpret and enjoy–A fashion show will also be presented. The event may also be called “interactive.” An open Mic. will be available for anybody who wishes to put their own art: be it in song or in spoken word, out into the air and thereby add to the energy of this very special gathering.

The event hosts (I have only given a partial list of their names) are representatives of New York society from diverse, yet unified backgrounds. Dee Finley is a talent who has brought a unique, difficult-to-label charisma to the city’s night life for years. She is a well-known event and nightclub promoter. Susan Anton originally gained publicity for winning the title of Miss California in 1969 and later went ahead to star in several feature films and to enjoy success as a recording artist, with one of her duets charting at number ten. Michael Musto is an acclaimed columnist and personality who has worked for the Village Voice and has made countless appearances on television talk and gossip shows. He is also the author of a Manhattan on the Rocks and other works. Anthony Haden-Guest is a cartoonist, art critic and socialite who divides his time between the United States and the United Kingdom. He is also a columnist and was a noted, earlier contributor to the magazine Rolling Stone. There are a number of other fantastic people hosting this fete. One of the many hosts will be the artist for whom this spectacular presentation has been organized to benefit: Layla Love.

All of the people who are donating their time, art, expertise and services to this very hip, very fun charitable event are putting their hearts into this in order for the extravaganza to reflect the vibrance and intense creativity of the New York Art Scene. This will not be a somber event. In fact, it should have as much spirit and verve as a spectacular party would be expected to possess. This isn’t just an Art Exhibit. It is a celebration where psychics and dancers, artists and healers will converge to raise energy, not just money.

The exhibition is extended (it will be open for six consecutive evenings) and kicks off on the evening of Friday, March 20 at 6:30pm. On that particular evening, the exhibition will close at 2:00am. An assortment of “Dancers, Artists, Healers– and New York’s Sassiest” (to quote directly from the event’s facebook advert page) will be on hand. The exhibition will run through Wednesday, March 25. Closing time on that night is set for 11:00pm.

I am planning on being there for both Friday and Saturday nights, but I possibly may stay longer. At this point, I cansay only that I will be there on those two evenings. I will be posting tweets on twitter and will blog if I determine that a longer stay is a possibility.

Below is the rest of the pertinent information you must need to know if you will be making plans to attend. I am also including an email which you may use to contact events planners for further information. Some of these details have already been stated in the blog, proper.

Location: COLLECTIVE HARDWARE 169 Bowery, two doors in from the corner of DeLancey. New York, NY. “Through Your Eyes… Welcome to Le Cirque d’ Art” will open on Friday, March 20 at 6:30 pm. and will run through Wednesday, March 25 upon which night the event will conclude at 11pm. Opening night will last until its scheduled closing time of 2:00am. For details about hours of operation on the other days I am furnishing you with an email which you may contact with questions. This email is printed below.

For additional information, please email: chateaudelion.pr@gmail.com

I am writing this very important blog in order to raise as much awareness as I possibly can about a truly rare event which has been orchestrated to benefit the artist and activist Layla Love, who is dealing with a potentially blinding medical condition.
