3 Day Ticket Psychedelic Culture 2027 for TWO $800 value


Psychedelic Culture 2027 will explore cutting-edge themes that are largely absent from the mainstream psychedelic conversation, all related to our main initiatives: Indigenous Reciprocity & Decolonial Dialogues, Psychedelic Justice, Protection of Sacred Plants & Cultural Traditions, and voices from the Global South.  At this three day in-person conference, with 3 simultaneous tracks, Chacruna will convene comprehensive panels and experiential opportunities including music, dance, art circles, rapé (tobacco) ceremonies, workshops and meet up sessions. Chacruna’s interdisciplinary conferences are well known for bringing diverse voices together, combining intellectual vision and rigor, community, activism, heart and soul. In the midst of the so-called psychedelic renaissance, it is more important than ever to promote dialogues between scientists and communities who have been truly involved with these medicines, to have knowledge about the proper ways to use and steward them.

Jaguar: Protection by Tania Lopez

$500 value


The design centers on the jaguar as a symbol of protection. It includes plant spirits such
as toé and mother ayahuasca, represented as a serpent, as well as a maestro
connected to the spirits of the plants. The surrounding patterns of the textile represent
icaros, which accompany visions. One of these corresponds to the icaro of chiric
sanango that the artist sings. Tania Lopez, whose Shipibo name is Neten Yaca
(meaning Bright World), comes from the remote Shipibo village of Roaboya on the
Ucayali River. She has been working with medicines for her whole life and comes from a
lineage of traditional healers. She has thirteen years of experience working with
ayahuasca. Her main maestro was her grandfather José Lopez, who was the community
healer at the time. Later, her uncle Américo Lopez and his partner Olga Urquia became
her teachers, as well as her cousin Gabriel Lopez. "Thanks to all of them, we are now a
strong family group of healers," she says. Her favorite plants are marosa, piñon
colorado, and shihuahuaco. Approximately 4.92 feet. Must be picked up in person.
