Welcome to the Gay Men's Medicine Circle
(GMMC)

 

We are based in West Hollywood, California, and are dedicated to the well-being of gay men and the welfare of the gay community throughout Southern California.

GMMC sees gay people as our tribe and the Los Angeles gay community as our village and encourages and supports the gay-centered spiritual growth of each other and gay men throughout the community. By "gay-centered" we mean that our purpose and activities start from an inner center that says being gay is important and substantial and meaningful; has a significant evolutionary and social purpose; and provides us the essential inner vision that guides and shapes our behavior, our lives and our psycho spiritual growth.

It is the opposite of "assimilation", the dominant ideology of most of the gay community's current leadership and organizations, which is based on the underlying premise that gay people are no different from anybody else.

We have initiated a public drumming circle at 10 AM on the last Sunday of each month. It is held at our meeting location in West Hollywood. All gay men are welcome to join us in making a joyful noise. Click here to have additional information sent to you.

The 2008 Spring equinox celebration will be held on Saturday, March 22nd at 1:00 PM in West Hollywood Park (San Vicente at Melrose Ave.) We gather on the lawn under the trees behind the West Hollywood Park Auditorium near the parking lot.
