All Open and Public Sabbat Rituals in Toronto include a Pot-Luck Feast, so please bring something you can share with others. Please bring a card with the ingredients to ensure the health and safety of participants. Please also bring your own cup, cutlery, and plate, as we do not offer single use feasting supplies. Due to the fact that there is no kitchen, you will also be required to take your used feasting items home with you without having been washed, so please plan accordingly.
