Support the standard-bearer for diversity in the astrology community: Northwest Astrology Conference (NORWAC)!
In the picture above, you’re looking at three of last year’s recipients, Chris Lam, Taylor Shuler, and Chantelle C. Miller, who are making their own bigger splashes into astrology since attending virtual NORWAC last year. For the full list, click here.
NORWAC has quickly become one of the most diverse astrology conferences in the world, along lines of gender, sexual identity, class and race. It exploded as a regional conference in 2018 , eclipsing all of its previous records for attendance. And then as a virtual conference in 2020 it set a new standard for virtual astrology conferences with nearly 1000 people in attendance. There were nearly as many people in 2021 for the next virtual NORWAC. The 2022 NORWAC will be live and in-person! (This will not be a hybrid model!)
Thanks to people willing to make it happen.
But there are plenty more to reach and NORWAC is ready to do more there.
