Between The Worlds / Sacred Space Conference 2026

In 2015 and 2023, The Assembly of the Sacred Wheel and the Sacred Space Foundation created successful collaborative conferences, and we look forward to doing so again in 2026. When the astrological dates that determine when Between The Worlds are close to Sacred Space's usual dates we join forces rather than competing and hurting each other. As Contemporary Paganism matures, we hope to provide a model for ways in which organizations can look for synergies and undertake cooperative initiatives.

The programs for both Sacred Space and Between The Worlds are geared toward serious and more advanced practitioners and are both based in the Mid-Atlantic. As an annual conference, Sacred Space fosters a strong sense of community among those who regularly attend. The missions of Sacred Space include building part of the infrastructure to support the continuing growth of intermediate and advanced practitioners, providing opportunities for regional talent to develop as teachers, and providing a venue for groups of people across traditions with similar interests and expertise to know and work with each other. Financially, the only goal of the Sacred Space Conference is to ensure that the conference is on sound financial footing so that its future can be ensured.

The Between The Worlds Conference serves a similar audience but is offered at particular intervals aligned with specific astrological events. It always includes a main ritual that is designed to address an important magical need, and the plenary sessions also discuss significant and timely topics. Financially, the Between The Worlds Conference is a fundraiser for the New Alexandrian Library— an important component of Pagan infrastructure.
