Workshop at Hamilton Pagan Pride Day
By Psyche | September 3, 2008
The Pagan Pride Project was formed in 1998 to increase community awareness of Paganism, with regional directors supporting supporting local Pagan Pride events across North America, and, increasingly, the world.
Each event hosts a public ritual, food drive and provides press releases and information to encourage positive media coverage.
While largely a venue for promoting Paganism, the Pagan Harvest Festival hosted in Hamilton, Ontario also provides space for other alternative religions and spiritualities to share their voice. In previous years they’ve hosted workshops on Thelema, ceremonial magick, and last year I presented an Introduction to Chaos Magick.
The Chairperson, Amanda Hyde, along with a host of excellent people, always puts together an amazing day. There will be workshops throughout the day, musical entertainers, at least five public rituals, information tables on niche esoteric subjects, great vendors, concluding with a performance by the ever-impressive Dragon Ritual Drummers.
While Selena Fox will be the main attraction, (and Brendan Myers, and the bellydancers, and, well, everyone) I’ll also be there giving a workshop titled Magickal Philosophy 101, and hosting the Chaos Magick information table.
Hamilton’s Pagan Pride festivities happen in Gage Park on Saturday, September 13th, 2008 (click here for directions), and Toronto’s Pagan Pride Day is being held in Wilket Creek Park on September 6th, 2008 (click here for directions).
If there’s an event in your area (see Where for a list of events by region), I highly recommend checking it out, Pagan or not.
