About This
AMBIOTICA, an ongoing experiment in social flirtation and cultural stimulation, is our post-modern version of the influential salons and private clubs of the past. Word of mouth and limited email invitations are attracting this creatively cultivated eclectic mix. Ambiotica is an integral evening, designed to serve our shared aspirations for a thriving culture, to focus and amplify the positive intentions and actions that our community embodies. Participation in this environment of conversation, performances, interactive art, exhibits and film - fueled by inventive musical grooves and exotic elixirs and edibles - calls for elegant, expressive dress and an intention beyond the obvious FUN we conspire together. This is an event-in-progress and will evolve with our collective expression going forward!
