What is the Gathering
of All Tribes?
The Gathering of
All Tribes is a pagan celebration of Mid-summer. For the past 8 years the
Church of All Worlds has hosted an annual Pagan Summer Gathering on this
weekend and at this site. This coming year however, they have elected to
hold their gathering interstate. A number of groups feel it is important
that a major pagan gathering should be held in the nation's capital and
have organised this event.
What will be happening?
MAGIC - Try
to imagine an 'Easter Show'of Pagan Groups. Various traditions (Celtic,
Wiccan, Northern Germanic, etc.) will be encamped together and will be
conducting their own rituals, workshops etc which everyone will be free
to attend. There will be no mixed magic rituals (ie. eclectic events which
utilise elements of multiple traditions). Seekers and the curious will
be free to enter the camps of various traditions to learn about them. The
aim is to have more rituals and workshops happening then a participant
can actually attend. Groups, individuals and solitaries are all welcome
to attend.
CULTURAL
- There will be a number of cultural events which will bring people of
various traditions together for fun, games and contests, a cooking contest,
home brewing competition, talent quests, childrens' cooking contests. There
will also be markets with one proviso. Stall holders MUST, as the price
of entry to the market, conduct one free workshop on some aspect of their
craft. In this way we hope to have a market of artisans and not retailers.
