Mikita Brottman, PhD and Melissa Daum, LMFT-D lead an illustrated online talk on fairy tales and the domestic uncanny, examining stories like Hansel and Gretel, Baba Yaga, and Cinderella through a psychoanalytic lens. Part of a month-long folk and fairy tale lecture series.
A quietly mystical Los Feliz compound that feels like you accidentally wandered onto the set of a 1930s occult noir. There’s a library packed with esoteric texts, a courtyard that begs for whispered conversations, and a steady calendar of lectures that swing from genuinely mind-expanding to delightfully unhinged. Come for a talk on alchemy or Jung, stay because the energy is strange in a soothing way. It’s cerebral, eerie, and deeply LA in the most charming sense.
