Don’t confuse them with the people you’d find dancing naked by the light of the full moon. Or maybe that’s exactly the image you should keep in mind as you greet your pagan fellows during the Charlotte Metro area’s 5th Annual Pagan Pride Day. However stereotypical your mindset is when it comes to keepers of the Harvest Season, witchcraft or Thor’s Hammer, please be conscious of the Second Amendment. Take this as an opportunity to learn more about the beliefs, rituals and people that make up this interesting alternative to traditional religion. Festivities to include live music, workshops/classes, chidren’s crafts and games, and even a dance and drum circle. 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Free. Freedom Park Train Field, 1900 East Blvd. www.paganpride.org.

BRANNA CALLOWAY, thank you for the nice write up about PPD!
Thank you for writing the article. I used to read CL every week when I lived in Charlotte. I still pick them up when ever I am in town. I would consider subscribing if you mailed the copies.
Thanks for writing about us in such open minded way. Articles like this are much appreciated.
