Grant App Study Hall for Aspiring Austin Artists

  • austin public library central branch (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

I’ll be hosting an informal gathering at the Austin Public Library’s Main (downtown) location to bring accountability, moral support, and light skill sharing to the admin side of our lives as public storytellers.

Come & go freely within that time window (this branch closes at 8pm).


No experience needed, all grant applicants + the grant-curious are welcome, as long as you can be cool.

Bring whatever you want to work on, or perhaps a laptop to research your options if you’re still clocking opportunities. If you don’t have ideas for funding sources, we can help with that!

Finding the Sweet Spot: An Evening of Sexual Reclamation for Men to Outgrow both Puritanical & Pornographic Conditioning

Part of the Dolla ‘is Maide Creative Residency series, this night for men only.

Drawing from years of experience working with female clientele on issues concerning sex and intimacy, on this night we examine the energetic traffic jams & logical liabilities that keep our bodies believing great sex is for someone else.

Email hello@zaeli.net to reserve your place.

Believing (in) Each Other: Dolla 'is Maide Residency Chats hosted by Pádraig Ó Duinnín

A Gathering of Women wanting to understand the men’s mental health crisis.

Here we’ll suspend our old stories to imagine our male counterparts as expressions of nature just like us, situating their epidemic depression within the context of the larger ecological crisis.

Read more about the intention here.

This event is one of three I’ll be facilitating during the first two weeks of August on the outskirts of Macroom in County Cork, Ireland, as recipient of the inaugural Dolla ‘is Maide Creative Residency hosted by Meitheal Mara founder, master boatmaker, and contemporary dancer Pádraig Ó Duinnín.

My time will be divided between leisurely art research (including, hopefully, lots of chatting with the locals!), and co-facilitating structured conversations alongside Pádraig at his ruggedly beautiful homestead.

Details for the talk series are forthcoming — to get on the waiting list for your invitation, email hello@zaeli.net.

Away With The Fa*ries

As part of Saint Paul’s Irish Arts Week sponsored by Celtic Junction Arts Center:

Featuring musical accompaniment by Fergal O’Brien of the Traditional Arts Partnership, Away With the Fa*ries is a live, bilingual storytelling experience showcasing a traditional Gaelic perspective on modern mental health, with special attention to body image, postpartum, and personality-based disorders.

In offering this harrowing yet humorous tale of abduction by the wise and mischievous beings of the Otherworld (a supernatural dimension of Irish lore), the audience is invited to re-enter their own stories of confusion, torment, and lost time with a renewed sense of humor and possibility.

Tickets $10 per person or free to Deireadh Seachtaine Gaeilge participants.

Online ticket sales will end at 11:30 pm on April 21, after which tickets may be purchased at the door.
