Memorial Park gets some magical visitors

@T_Basic:Rhode Island Pagan Pride Day took over Memorial Park on Saturday, as Wiccan and holistic vendors set up shop to celebrate Pagan beliefs and offer some unusual shopping opportunities. The event was free and open to the public, and donations were accepted for the Rhode Island Community Food Bank. There was a blood drive in the park as well.
