A Pagan Friendsgiving (Indy)

Join us for a warm and welcoming Pagan Friendsgiving gathering at The Grove, a time to celebrate the season of harvest, gratitude, and community. Nestled between Samhain🎃 and Yule❄️, and set amidst the crisp autumn air and colorful leaves 🍂🍁, this event honors the spirit of giving, earth-based traditions, and the magic of coming together in fellowship.

We'll begin with a gratitude circle where we can each share what we are thankful for, followed by a potluck feast. We'll provide a couple homemade main dishes and have the coffee ☕️, hot chocolate 🫕, and tea 🫖 bar set up 🙂.  

We'll also be hosting a community altar, where you can place items that symbolize your personal blessings, intentions, or ancestors, helping us create a beautiful space filled with collective gratitude and energy.

Throughout the evening, we’ll have fire 🔥 outside to gather around for warmth and storytelling. We'll close with a ritual of thanks, honoring the land and each other, and reflecting on our shared hopes for the winter season ahead.

Additionally, we're sure there will be folks willing to do some reading 🔮, an impromptu drum 🥁 circle is always a possibility, we'll put out some craft supplies 🎨, maybe play a movie 📽 on one of the projectors, and the dragon puzzle 🧩 can always use attention 😁

We’re excited to gather and share this experience with everyone. To help cover basic costs and to plan for how many friends to welcome, this gathering will be donation based with various levels to accommodate everyone in being able to participate and to allow us to give back some to a worthy charity. Your contribution allows us to create a meaningful and accessible event for all, with the spirit of giving back.
