Witness the transformation of the beautiful grounds of Trinity Hall under the light of the midnight sun. Experience the enticing array of food, drink, music and entertainment we have to offer. With installations that will... Read more

Last updated on: March 25, 2018 at 10:18 am By Megan Manson

Back in the days of yore when I used to teach English in Japan, I once showed my junior high school class some pictures of my family celebrating Christmas at my parents’ house. Christmas in Japan is quite a different celebration from its Western counterpart, and the children were curious to see what sorts of traditions we had. They were delighted by the photos of my family exchanging presents from under the tree, the large Nativity scene, and us all sharing... Read more

We Are Wild And We Are Free: Paganism And Liberty

Last updated on: March 25, 2018 at 10:18 am By Megan Manson

I delivered the following speech at a multi-faith discussion event on the subject of Freedom at Chatham Unitarian Church on July 20th 2017. I’d like to play you an excerpt from a song by British rock band Inkubus Sukkubus. This band is popular in the British Pagan community, as they frequently sing songs about nature worship, witchcraft and other songs with a Pagan theme.
