The Weekend

Three days of transmutation

The ancient alchemists turned lead to gold in four stages. We'll do it in one weekend. Come for an afternoon, a night, or the whole enchantment. We're keeping the portal open from Saturday until Monday morning.

🍷
Saturday · Afternoon
☉ Citrinitas — the golden work

Picnic & Wine at Quivira

1:00 PM – 4:30 PM

A picnic lunch among the vines at Quivira Vineyards, with wine tasting through the afternoon. Bring a bite to share — it's a potluck.

Saturday · Night
☽ Albedo — the silvering by moonlight

Dinner with Dear Friends

Evening · Candlelight

As dusk settles over the valley, a small circle gathers by candlelight — dear friends, a shared feast, and wine poured slow. An evening for laughter, old tales, and wishes spoken aloud for the year to come.

Bring a potion to pour or a spell to share — a bottle you treasure, a toast, a blessing, a little magic of your own.

Sunday · Afternoon into night
✦ Rubedo — the Philosopher's Stone

The Sunday Celebration

From 2:00 PM · Until the stars fade

As the afternoon light turns gold, we gather to honor another turn of the wheel. Music drifting through the trees, steam rising from the hot tub beneath the stars, glasses raised to the man we love. Come as you are, and bring your most magical party spirit — along with a potion to share or a spell to cast in his honor.

The Return

Slow morning

Coffee, sleepy smiles, and the gentle closing of the portal. You arrived as lead; you leave as gold. Safe travels, dear mortals.

The Place · Locus Magicus

The Alchemist's Keep

Hidden in the vines of Healdsburg, Sonoma County — about 90 minutes north of San Francisco — where the River of Quicksilver bends and ordinary wine is said to turn to gold.
