Hekate Supper: Performance and Lecture with Artist Kay Turner
Sunday, March 29, 2026, 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
NEW DATE: Now on Sunday, March 29th
Free with museum admission.
Join artist and scholar Kay Turner as she unfolds the archetype of Hekate, Greek goddess of many things–the Crossroads, the Underworld, the Moon. She was also very much associated with the cycle of fruition and decay. Her worshippers held “suppers” for her at crossroads shrines and left the refuse in her honor.
About the artist: Kay Turner is an artist and scholar working across disciplines including performance, writing, music, exhibition curation, and public and academic folklore. She is noted for her feminist writings and performances on subjects such as women’s home altars, fairy tale witches, and historical goddess figures. She co-founded “Girls in the Nose,” a lesbian feminist rock punk band that anticipated riot grrl.
