Our members work actively in their communities and throughout the region to teach, celebrate, and connect. We would love for you to join us!
As a not-for-profit organization incorporated in the State of Illinois, we generate revenue through registration fees at our events and donations from our community, and that revenue goes right back into our mission to provide a safe space for
Pagans to be themselves and connect with one another. There are no dues to pay to maintain membership – we just ask that you participate in the ongoing work of building safe and affirming community for all to the extent that you are able.
