A Wonderful Witchcraft District Witch Community Event Open to ALL!
Hello, Witches, Warlocks, and Magical People!
Join us for a full day of Community, Creativity, Magic, and Good Company in The Witchcraft District!
This Sunday, June 7th, weâll begin the day at 11am with Rhianna of The Dreaming Goddess as she conducts her beautiful and beloved Water Ceremony at the Poughkeepsie Boat Launch next to The Governess. All are welcome to attend this meaningful spiritual gathering by the river. Water is Life!
Afterward, we invite Witches, Warlocks, Pagans, Occultists, Shadow Seekers, the Curious, and friends from ALL paths to wander over into Waryas Park for our Witches & Warlocks Stone Painting & BBQ Event beginning at Noon!
Inspired in part by the famous Whidbey Island Rocks, attendees will paint their own witchy and magical stones to later leave throughout Poughkeepsie â AKA The Witchcraft District â for others to discover. Each completed stone will include instructions encouraging people to share their discoveries online using hashtags like and .
This is about more than painting rocks. Itâs about creativity, community, conversation, expression, and continuing to evolve the spirit and identity of The Witchcraft District together as a Witch Community.
Weâll have rocks, paint, and brushes available. Weâll also be hosting a laid-back community potluck barbecue! Feel free to bring:
đ„ A dish or munchie to share
đ Something for the grill if youâd like
đ„€ Your drink of choice
đȘ A chair or blanket if desired
No experience is needed â just good energy and a willingness to create something fun and magical together.
Whether you walk a magical path or are simply curious about the community, you are welcome to join us for an unforgettable afternoon in the park.
