Guest Performer: Nashville Pagan Pride Day is pleased to welcome Rowena of the Glen as our guest performer. Rowena says: "...my lifelong love of music and of singing lead me to embark upon the path of a singer and writer of songs. I was trained for the opera, which then lead to singing jazz, pop, R&B rock and to the obvious outlet as a writer of songs... I am a member of ASCAP. I have had hundreds of songs published, of which I am composer of both lyrics and music.
We would like to thank the following groups for volunteering to perform rituals at our event:
Opening Ritual: Obeah and Wanga Camp OTO - Our mission is to effect and promote the doctrines and practices of the philosophical and religious system known as Thelema, and to provide a fertile ground for the cultivation of free thought in the vein of scientific research to understand ones own Universe and Path and his or her advancement in Light, Wisdom, Understanding, Knowledge, and Power through Beauty, Courage, and Wit, on the Foundation of Universal Brotherhood. We offer seasonal rituals, and a variety of classes and workshops of interest to Thelemites and practitioners of western esoteric and oriental mysteries. You can find us on Facebook or visit our website.
Main Ritual: Dragon Stone Coven - Dragon Stone Coven is an eclectc Wiccan tradi on based upon Alexandrian tradition, but without the restrictions. We value creativity and present as a group Wiccan teachings one class a month for a 13 months. Information on classes is available on Witchvox.
Closing Ritual: Order of the Sages - We are a learning group founded under the principal of sharing our beliefs and knowledge, past experiences and arts so as to learn and better our understandings of our diverse community. Our name is actually a bit of humor as everyone is a Sage about something, we all just have to find what we have to share and make sure that we do so with respect and passion. We have existed about 2 and 1/2 years as an active group and have been fortunate in being met with understanding and friendship. We enjoy hosting some fun events throughout the year and love seeing familiar faces; as well as new ones. We believe that everyone in the Community has something unique to offer.
