1:00–1:55 pm: Young Adult & Occult Discussion Group: Identity
Young Adult & Occult is a space for Pagans in their late teens and early twenties (roughly 15-25) to build community and learn together that is held monthly at OLOTEAS events (and sometimes offsite). At this month's Young Adult & Occult: We will have a group discussion about identity, and the ways that Pagan spiritual identity interacts with other identities.

Where to meet in Ravenna Park:
In addition to our virtual programming this month, we are meeting at Ravenna Park in Seattle for an in-person community meeting and ritual. The community meeting will be in an open space where we will be easy to find; after that, we'll move as a group to a more private location in the trees for our ritual.
- We will gather starting at 5:15pm, on the lawn south of the playground at the east end of Ravenna Park.
- Look for the staff with colored ribbons to be sure you're finding the right group.
- Please bring a chair or blanket if you want to sit, and dress for the weather.
- The closest intersection is Ravenna Ave NE and NE 55th Street; you can see the playground marked on Google Maps.
- This area of the park is served by Metro bus routes 74, 79, and 372.
- There is a very small parking lot for the park nearby, and street parking is also available.
