The Psychedelic Salon — Summer Edition
A collaboration between MushRoom and Cabaret Voltaire

The summer edition of the Psychedelic Salon follows the branching connections surrounding a Central American mushroom stone on display at the Museum Rietberg. This sculpture holds central significance for the history of psychedelic research as well as for the colonization of indigenous knowledge and the ongoing transformation of ritual practices related to «sacred» mushrooms. 

Join us for a long summer evening of ancestral and scholarly insights, artistic explorations, and communal gathering.
