Halloween Events This Weekend, 10/30 & 10/31

 

5 pm Saturday October 30th
Online:  Halloween and the History of Witches with Grounded Goodwife

How did the benevolent image of a wise woman transform into the malevolent figure of the witch we know today?  When you think of a witch, it’s easy to conjure up an image of an old, ugly, hook-nosed woman, stirring up a steaming potion that is brewing away inside a cauldron. Of course her usual sidekick, the proverbial black cat, is probably not far away. Have you ever wondered, especially on Halloween, why witches are depicted as riding on brooms through the nighttime sky? You’re never going to look at sweeping the same way again...Sponsored by the Vineyard Haven and Chilmark libraries.
