~ Goddess 2000 Project ~

"A Goddess on Every Block!"

A Grass-roots Goddess Art Project.




Lets welcome the era with Goddess Statues, Paintings and Art Everywhere!



The Vision continues!

These past three years, all over the world pagan groups, circles, and solitary folks made large Goddess statues, painted huge Goddess images, and built labyrinths in preparation for the Millennium transition.

Now we are moving on, The Goddess 2000 Project officially ends on Dec. 9,2001. We will be continuing to promote the creation of Sacred Art as a service to the community. We will be known as "A Goddess on Every Block!" and will be at this website URL

The next thousand years belong to the Goddess and Her Wisdom. We are joined by new people everyday and are continuing to create Art that honors Her, and the sacred principles of Nature.

Join us in continuing to create the largest outpouring of Goddess Imagery seen in the past 3,000 years!



This Great Goddess created in North Carolina by Wildflower and friends is truly an inspiration!.



Statues are being made in wood, plaster, concrete, clay, paper-mache, textiles and metal. The paintings are in all kinds of paint. Some people are making Goddess Collages, Quilts, Murals, and Labyrinths. Smaller pieces are also being made by many folks. What would you like to create to celebrate the return of the Great Goddess?

Many of the Goddess pieces are for public display and many are being displayed only in people's homes and in their gardens.

The point is to create a web of Goddess energy. You don't need to be public with your Goddess art unless you want to. The power is in the Creation of these pieces of sacred imagery.



You don't have to be an artist to make Goddess Art. If you love the Goddess, you will honor Her with whatever you make. "The Goddess 2000 Project" network in growing! Write and let us know what you or your group are making.

If you would like some ideas or instructions for creating your Goddess 2000 we would be glad to help.


For three years, all over the world, pagan groups, circles, and solitary folks ahave been making large Goddess statues, painting huge Goddess images, and building labyrinths as a way to manifest Goddess Consciousness and build community. The next thousand years belong to the Goddess, lets welcome Her by putting a Goddess image on every block in America, and thousands more around the world!

Mission Statement of Goddess 2000 Project

The ~Goddess 2000 Project~ is a healing Community Event that seeks to include all branches of the Earth Spirit, Goddess, Pagan, Dianic, Wiccan, Asatru, Yoruba, Heathen, Indigenous Spiritualities, and other Earth honoring folks.

Whatever our own individual Paths, we have come together here to Celebrate the return of the Goddess, focusing on our shared beliefs, not our differences.



We are not seeking a homogenized tribute to the Goddess. These pages are written by one Pagan, using language and terms from their own Pagan tradition. If your tradition uses different terms and symbols, please join us and add to the richness of this event.

My expression is limited by my own experience, the voices of all Pagan and Heathen Paths that honor the Earth, and all others who celebrate the energy of the Goddess are needed to create rich and accurate expressions of Goddess Energy.
