Hey there, time traveller!

Winnipeg’s first witchy night market makes a return this autumn and it’s bigger and better than ever.
A Thinning of Veil: Samhain Witches Night Market kicks off tonight from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. and continues on Sunday from 2 p.m to 7 p.m.
Founded by Kari Giavedoni of Mommabat Witchery, the market featuring 50 alternative vendors will set up shop at the R.A. Steen Community Club, 980 Palmerston Ave.
“The first market was hosted on our riverside property on Wolseley Avenue this summer with 27 vendors. We had over 500 guests visit,” says Giavedoni.
“There is a really big demand for witchy bazaars in different cities across Canada and the U.S. Winnipeg has metaphysical markets, but not a specific witches market. I thought it was a great idea so I went for it here.”
Giavedoni offers tarot readings, birth-chart readings and astrology year-ahead readings as part of Mommabat Witchery’s services.
Vendors over the weekend include Aine’s Oddities, Kozmic Art, Dying to Help Doula, Aly Apocalypse, Misfits Incantra, Covenstead Candles, Brook Drabot Glass and Machine Gal Milliner.
“We are also accepting goods and funds as part of our donation drive for North Point Douglas Women’s Centre and Ma Mawi. Items such as feminine hygiene products, tuques, mitts, socks, winter clothing, canned goods and bottled drinks are welcome.
“Everyone who brings a donation will get a raffle ticket with two different prizes: one prize is from market vendors and the other is from Prairie Sky Books,” Giavedoni continues.
She is currently planning a Winter Solstice Night Market for December and an anti-Valentine’s Day market for February.
