 Inner Circle Sanctuary
at Las Vegas Pagan Pride 2018 September 29, 2018 10am-6pm ICS will be presenting Wicca With Inner Circle Sanctuary as part of LVPPD's Lecture Series. We will discuss what it takes to be a member of our group, how we practice the Craft, what our community is like, what we teach, and how we celebrate the Gods. ICS will have a vendor booth where Craft related items will be on sale; 100% of the proceeds from our vendor booth will be donated to charity. ICS will also have a Community Booth where inquiries can be made, questions can be answered, and throughout the day we will have demonstrations of some of our rituals, including: Invoking the Elementals Drawing Down the Moon & The Great Rite. Stay tuned for a schedule of all of our events and for previews of what you will be able to purchase! The event will be held at one of our favorite places: Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Las Vegas 3616 East Lake Mead Blvd Las Vegas, NV 89115 Here is an article we wrote for the Pagan Pride Las Vegas Project.  Pagan Pride Day Las Vegas is coming up and we are looking for local businesses to participate as vendors of either goods or services at the event. If you are a past partner, it’s important to get in early to ensure you have a booth. If you’ve never considered marketing your product at a pagan principled event, consider the following. 1. Your business will be in view of hundreds of potential new customers. Members of the pagan community love new things. We love old things; we love things. You have the potential to reach out to individuals at an event outside of the normal venue which allows you to meet, greet and market to a whole new demographic 2. The above still being true, additionally if you are an established vendor of craft fairs, renaissance fairs, occult and religious themed goods then you can get your product or service in front of the intended target 3. You become the de-facto expert on your goods and services. You will have captured the attention of hundreds of individuals and own the conversation regarding your line of services of product. 4. It is a perfect way to generate future customers through networking – So maybe you don’t get rich at Pagan Pride Day Las Vegas? You will be building a loyal base of future consumers and interest; again, see point 3. 5. It establishes continued or new goodwill and communication between you and the community. Pagan people are a diverse yet tight knit community. You have an opportunity to establish yourself as someone who cares, if not shares, about our values and concerns. 6. It’s a very inexpensive way to generate long term advertising and recognition – Like we said, you will hold the attention of hundreds of potential or future customers for the low price from $35.00 for a booth. 7. It’s a great day of fun – Pagans can party and you will enjoy the beauty of good people on a good day Please consider becoming a vendor by clicking on our vendor link below; if you have specific questions you can reach our vendor coordinator at VENDORS@LVPAGANPRIDE.ORG  Click Here To Be Directed To Las Vegas Pagan Pride  Click To See The Flyer Here is an article we wrote for the Pagan Pride Las Vegas Project. 3 Reasons Why Your Group/Coven Should Have a Booth |
 | 1. New Members For Your Group More and more, long-time beginners are looking for groups to join and young people are being introduced to paganism every day. They want a safe place to learn. They need it. When you have a booth at your local Pagan Pride event, you can offer them a safe place to learn and grow your own group. Here are some statistics on pagan* growth: |
- There are over 700,000 websites for Wicca
- Roughly 10 million Wiccan-related books were sold in 2000 (up from 4.5 million in 1990)
- In 1999, the Covenant of the Goddess reported 600,000 initiated witches
- The number of self-identified pagans doubles every 18-30 months
- Don Lewis’ Witch School has over 250,000 students on the internet
See sources for statistics below
Not every pagan wants to practice the way you and your group does. They may want something a little more collegiate, a little more laid back, or a little less “pagan”. Getting to know the other types of pagan groups in your community allows you to know where to send these fledgling seekers. In southern Nevada alone, there are many forms of Paganism** (and these are just the ones that we are aware of):
