The Greater New Orleans Pagan Pride annual Ostara event on March 19th was a complete success. Despite unusually cold conditions, turnout was excellent. The ritual invocation of Persephone with altar, drums and chanting was amazing, as were the talents of Ulix and Emily. Afterward there was an unusually popular egg hunt, with about 2 dozen adults and 3 children. Libations and potluck goodies to share rounded off the afternoon.

Join us for an afternoon of community, ritual, and celebration of growth! Greater New Orleans Pagan Pride welcomes you to our Ostara picnic and egg hunt, March 19 at 1 pm at the Butler Fountain in City Park, across from Ralph’s on the Park. Bring family, friends, a dish to share, and an offering of the abundance of spring for our Ostara altar. Ritual will begin at 2 pm. Egg hunt will follow and is open to children and adults of all ages!
