Teen Witch: 101

You’ve heard the term “witch” you’ve seen the word “witchcraft”, but what do they mean? Who is a witch? Can anyone be a witch? Join Skye Mendelson and Loretta Ledesma of Ritualcravt as we dive into what it means to be WITCH. Where to begin, what are magical objects, how to set an altar and basic spell casting. Beginning a magical grimoire, keeping a magical record. And what is the magic of the moon? Blend a tea, create a potion and put together a personalized spell kit. Come to the altar of self and connect with the knowledge within.

This class is for ages 12-17. The word witch is used to describe folks of all genders and non conforming. This is a safe space for all.
