About The Witchery
Our Vision
The Witchery is a creative space located on Pickering Wharf in Salem, MA. Gret McGilvray founded the Witchery in 2016 as an art and performance space. It has since grown to include daily broom making workshops, bookbinding sessions, tarot workshops and our live show Moon Witch.
Giving Back
The Witchery supports trans rights and donates to NAGLY (North Shore Alliance for LGBTQ+ youth). We also feel strongly about our beloved Salem seas and send monthly donations to Salem Sound Coastwatch. This year, we are proud to join the Witches for Women fundraiser for HAWC- Healing Abuse Working for Change. We are also a proud sponsor of the annual Massachusetts Poetry Festival.
Our Future
Our goals for the future are to find more locally grown, ethically sourced crafting materials and supplies, as well as to connect with our community to bring diverse talent to our live performances.
Contact us with ideas, suggestions, or if you'd like to join our crew of creative folks here at The Witchery!
