Meetings and Presentations

The Capital Tarot Society meets the first Saturday of every month (or the second Saturday if the first Saturday falls over a holiday weekend).  Meetings alternate between in-person gatherings and online presentations every other month. In-person meetings often involve lunch, and allow for unstructured conversation, show-and-tell, and group or one-on-one tarot readings. Online meetings are more structured, and usually involve a predetermined discussion topic or presentation, sometimes with slides.

See the current meeting schedule and past meeting topics, below, to get a sense of what past meetings and presentations have covered.

If you are interested in attending one of our meetings please see our how to join page.
