Free Spirit Gathering 2026 - 40th year

We will briefly discuss Rorschach prints, pareidolia, and symbolism in art history and pop culture but the majority of our workshop time will be spent on divination! All participants should come to this workshop with a question that they would like to be answered by their first reaction to a symmetric inkblot print that they create themselves with ink, water, brush, and paper. You will come away from this workshop with a method of divination to use that is cheap and easy to do. It can be used to inspire art projects, and it is a method of divination that is discreet as well as artistic. Sharing ideas and interpretations are highly encouraged so that everyone can learn together. No experience with divination or art is necessary and all levels of experience are welcome.

What happens when we mix traditional bone-casting and cartomancy with Lilithian Philosophy to be able to read not just the energies moving around ourselves, but within our communities as well? This lively (and wickedly fun) class dives into an alternate view of reading bones and working with Oracle and Tarot cards to assist in guiding us and our chosen families towards places of balance, harmony, and acceptance. See the path forward for yourself and others and gather your tribe for an alternative viewpoint that will stretch your mind and help you use divination tools in a whole new way! You'll leave class with a Dae bone-casting kit and a set of Dae oracle cards so you can keep reading on your own!

You have a great craft product or service to offer for sale to the community. Just as an artist or musician sell their art and creations, so can you! The big question for you, and many others, is….HOW? Being a successful vendor involves more than just the creation of your art/craft.    

Join Jim, one of the owner/creators from WizardsTower, as he shares insights and strategies from his 20 years of vending experience. Discussions will also include choosing which events to sell at and types of setup. He will share some tips to help you minimize the mistakes he     made when starting his journey.
