Salasbananas Journal

A place for queer bodies, artists, visionaries and changemakers to dream and practise together. For those who live in Sri Lanka, those finding their way back, and those arriving as guests. A place to pray for the Earth we long for, and to tend to the mother who called us forth.

Creative Pooja: The Art of Nourishing What We Create

Creative Pooja at Salasbananas

Creative Pooja is an ongoing gathering at Salasbananas the Queer Temple in Thalpe, Sri Lanka. Thursday, 19 November 2026, 4:30–7:00 PM.

Each gathering will welcome guest practitioners, artists and facilitators who bring their own creative practices and perspectives into the space.

One gathering might explore sound and vibration. Another might invite movement, visual art, poetry, storytelling, ritual or deep rest.

The practices may change, but the intention remains.

To create a space where creativity can be honoured, nourished and celebrated.

And where artists, dreamers, visionaries, changemakers and queer bodies can gather in community, beyond competition, comparison and the pressure to perform.

Not simply another event on our calendars, but a conscious relationship with the creative life moving through us.
