Queer Pagan Camp - Summer Camp 2017 in Somerset!
QPC is a place where people from all gender and sexual identities gather together to explore our connections with nature, spirit and the land.
QPC works on the basis of respect: for ourselves, each other, the Land, the Spirits, Animals, the Planet, the Faery Folk, the Mysteries and Deities.
Join us in this celebration of our 20th year with drum, voice, laughter, journey, dance, ritual, passion, dream and glitter.
As Queer Pagans we come from a variety of pagan paths and from all forms of gender identity and consensual sexuality. We also look at our pagan practices from a queer perspective exploring and creating queer myths and mysteries and challenging those practices which do not fit our queer pagan, earth-honouring values.
The wheel of life is out of balance. Climate change, religious intolerance, animal cruelty, austerity and loss of access to sacred places are all examples of increasing global and personal challenges. But by our conscious choices and actions we can make a difference in the world; taking action to save endangered species or displaced peoples, growing community food networks, opposing fracking and badger culling and celebrating what is possible to create a world of love and trust.
We come together to restore the balance but Queer Pagan Camp is also a place for revelry and celebration; for drumming and singing, for ritual and chanting, for creativity and maze walking, play and fun for ball gowns and wellies.
We are a Do It Together group - everyone makes camp happen. Be prepared to muck in!
We positively invite Spirits of Place, the Folk and Mysteries to participate in camp and we respect those people who provide voices for them.
We value people of all ages and we welcome people of all gender identities and sexualities, cultures and ethnicities, and both disabled and non-disabled people. While young people and children remain the responsibility of their parents, we make camp a welcoming place for them and everyone else. Our camp is based on inclusion and honesty.
Come and share your song, your drumming, your magic, rituals, political insights, environmental solutions, your crafts, recipes and queer pagan spirit!
