THANK YOU LETTER TO PERFORMERS OF 21 HOUR BIRTHDAYARAMA FOR LINDA MARY MONTANO

 THANK YOU LETTER TO PERFORMERS OF  21 HOUR  BIRTHDAYARAMA FOR LINDA MARY MONTANO

FROM: LINDA MARY  MONTANO:

DEAR ALL BIRTHDAY PERFORMERS,

I will type this in small letters but please see it as  allllll caps!!!!

How can I put into words my gratitude and applause  and smiles  and bows for the heart filled  BEAUTY that each of you offered during the 21 hours of celebration of life, celebration of art, celebration of PERFORMANCE ART?

YOU ALL revealed  PERFORMANCE ART'S abilities during those 21 hours:  

it's ability to clear the aire, 

its ability to clean the heart of the performer and viewer,

its ability to treat karma with a free MEDICINE; the medicine of  truth, the medicine of shock, the medicine of timeless transformation.....

its ability to remind us that intuitive play, as art, is our true birthright

its ability to allow each of us to pray in our own way, to communicate in our own way, to heal in our own way, to save therapy money by doing it ourselves performatively in our own way, to dig into our shadow and SAFELY see the messages in our own way, to  speak to unmet needs so we can walk through our lives in a sweet, kind new way....cleaned  hearts.....

During the 21 hours I moved through the 87,653  emotions allowed us at  birth and thank you for the healings.  Each of you.

And all of this was made possible by the generous: CONCEIVERS OF THE IDEA/CURATORS OF THE PARTAYYYYYYYY/LOVE LETTER GATHERERS/TECHNICAL STAFF & OFFICE STAFF at:

FRANKLIN FURNACE ARCHIVE

GRACE EXHIBITION SPACE

STREAMSIDE 7

THREE PHASE CENTER

THE INTERIOR BEAUTY SALON

As you all saw from the SEAMLESS way that the 21 hours  FLOWED, their dedication to timing and process and technology was impeccable. Also, their dedication to presenting each person perfectly was a true selfless gift for all of us to remember. 

May we all continue loving not only ourselves  but truly practice the love of art in our lives and the love of life in our art! And may we support others to experience the healing joys of art.
