For some Pagan Fringe witchcraft events, we need to be intentional in how we manage numbers for accessibility and comfort. Some events will require bookings and RSVP for this reason. Perhaps you can help us expand with ideas for additional venues - accessibility is a must! Happy to hear from you!
Small changes and intentional witchcraft
Intentional witchcraft means that for some Pagan Fringe events, I need to manage the space I have a little more carefully and start taking bookings to manage numbers. This is about maintaining comfort and accessibility.
