The 13th annual Rhode Island Pagan Pride Day took place on Aug. 20, the fifth year that the celebration has been held at Memorial Park, according to coordinator Jane Driscoll.

There was no admission fee for event; organizers asked visitors to donate a non-perishable food item for the Rhode Island Community Food Bank in Providence.

Donations of a different kind were being accepted by the Rhode Island Blood Bank, which parked the Bloodmobile at the park for the day.

More than 40 vendors participated, from makers of hand-made jewelry to sellers of all-vegetarian food and the Witches Almanac.

Visitors also had an opportunity to witness two rituals and participate in workshops, a Reiki attunement and psychic readings.
