What we’re about
Magic awaits with the Malliway Bros!
Witches, wizards, sorcerers, warlocks, enchanters, and magic-makers of all kinds will find community and fun at the Witches' Conclave. We offer workshops and rituals focusing on various aspects of witchcraft with an emphasis on being operative and results-oriented. Practitioners of all skill levels are welcome to attend our meetings, whether you're a fresh witchling just starting off or have been working the weird ways of witchcraft for ages.
We provide inclusive rituals for the phases of the moon and open celebrations for the witch's sabbats. Our classes focus on a wide spectrum of traditional and operative magic, drawing inspiration from our time in the wilds of England's west country.
The Conclave often gathers at our witch shop, Malliway Bros, located at 1407 W Morse Avenue, in the bustling Roger's Park neighborhood of Chicago.
THE WITCHES' CONCLAVE CODE OF CONDUCT
No matter our paths, what spirits we work with, or what forces we conjure, at the Witches' Conclave let's gather in peace. We are here to learn and to spread our magic and in order to do this, there are a few guidelines to follow:
-No photography or recordings of others without their permission.
-Respect other's privacy if they do not wish to share personal information, social media, email, phone numbers, addresses, or spend time outside of the Conclave.
-Do not use the Conclave as a dating pool.
-Do not solicit other members for business or money during events.

See you there!This class may be a primer but it is not for beginners. In it, we will teach different forms of cursing, powerful curses in history, and how to protect yourself from backfire. We will also discuss the ideas of morals on when/if cursing is okay but we will not push any morals of our own. We will also work a hex of self-infliction upon our enemies at the end of this workshop, and possibly a few more minor hexes as well.

See you there!Dotted across fairy tales and our own fertile imaginations, mermaids have been a staple as one of the most iconic magical beings for ages. It may or may not surprise you to know that mermaids have myths that go back thousands of years, describing them as beautiful and graceful, or fearsome and grotesque. We will be looking into the origins of some of these myths, how they are similar, how they differ, and how they connect to witches.
Much of this class will be about the folklore of mermaids, so I hope you are ready to get chatty and delve into some deep waters here. With enough luck, we might even have a little time left to work some magic as well. - A Rite of Swifting1407 W Morse Ave, Chicago, ILUSD 10.00
