Arcadia
A spiritual retreat for Queer Pagan Men
and our Allies.
November 15-17, 2024
This year’s Arcadia retreat is in-person at a campground in Virginia Beach, VA.
A weekend of Pagan exploration, Queer sensibility, and male bonding in an open, participatory, safe and sacred space.
Guest Facilitator: Eric Eldritch

Eldritch is a community organizer with leadership experience in organizational development based on principles of group identity, sociolinguistics, and cross-cultural relations.

Eldritch consults with Pagan and community groups to create events that organize, energize, and inspire.
Those who dwell in Arcadia seek out that secret Eden because of its isolation from the troubled world and its safety from the arrogant demands of those who would deny freedom, curtail human action, and destroy innocence and love.
