2026 Pagan Pride Day Outdoor Vendor Applications are Live! All buildings are booked.
Our team is made up of passionate volunteers and leaders who believe in building a welcoming, inclusive, and supportive pagan community. Each member brings their unique skills, lived experiences, and spiritual paths together to create meaningful events, educational opportunities, and safe spaces for connection. Pagan Pride Day is truly a labor of love, rooted in service, collaboration, and community care.
Jenifer is a practitioner of almost 30 years and has been involved with several Pagan groups during that time. As a planner by trade, she hopes to help our organization expand its offerings and looks forward to helping grow the footprint of NWI Pagan Pride in Porter County. Jenifer is a seeker of Lilith and devotes much of her practice to the study of the divine feminine archetypes in Paganism. She loves Astrology and the tarot, and when she isn’t traveling for work, you can find her at the dance studio, roller skating the local trails, or looking for another cup of coffee.
With a formal education in psychology, gender studies, energy and sound healing, and Divinity work as well as personal interests in spiritual neuroscience, hiking and camping, foraging and gardening, fiber arts, and divination work it is easier to say Niccole is a knower of things and a do-er of stuff. She is the Witch behind Hearth & Hedge Metaphysics. Niccole is a Celtic Reiki Master Practitioner/Teacher and a sound healer as well as a workshop leader. A practicing Pagan for over 30 years, she has had the opportunity to make magick with amazing groups of people, covens, and circles. She is most at home in her personal hearth, out on the trail communing with nature, and walking the water at Lake Michigan filling her pockets with hag stones. Niccole has spent the past several years serving her community on staff at ConVocation.
She is a lifetime learner and thinks gatekeeping is bullshit so be prepared for infodumping of whatever random knowledge is forefront in her brain at the moment. Niccole is a queer Hearth Witch who walks the hedge and has been drawn to shadow and death work for as long as she can remember. Teaching others is a joyful experience for her because when we share knowledge, our community is strengthened and strong communities are vital for our survival. Labyrinths & mandalas calm her soul and she finds a labyrinth to walk wherever her travels take her.
Niccole's favorite quote is "You are a ghost, driving a meat coated skeleton made of stardust riding a rock hurtling through space. Fear nothing"
