Within those sacred bounds, the worshippers would honor and commune with their God through boundary-breaking ecstatic revelry.        On Saturday evening, join us in the Grove of the Green Faerie as we celebrate a modern interpretation of the ancient Greek festival of the Ampelia, which was traditionally held near this time of year. Here, under the watchful gaze of the Lord of Indestructible Life, we will celebrate the mysteries of the Vine. This adult dance and costume party will open with prayers and libations to Dionysos and Ariadne, and requests for blessings of safety, ecstasy and joy for its participants.         Bring a joyous attitude, along with wine, beer, or mead for the Wine God’s vat (but no hard liquor, please). 21 and over only, and please bring your own cup.   Hosted by The Green Faerie Grove of Columbus, Ohio.
