Scholarships

Our Scholarship Program provides both partial and full scholarships for those who wish to attend the Gathering. Each year, we work with dedication and care to expand the number of full scholarships we’re able to offer our greater Spirit Weavers community.

At Spirit Weavers, we honor the importance of solidarity and allyship as vital threads in the weaving of our collective story. Offering a range of scholarships is one of the many ways we continue to open this container to women of all backgrounds, walks of life, and lived experiences.

For the 2026 Gathering, we are grateful to offer 18 full scholarships and several partial scholarships made possible entirely through our web of community support.

Each year, Spirit Weavers hosts a Raffle Fundraiser filled with a beautiful variety of prizes—generously donated by our Marketplace vendors, sponsors, and community members. The raffle takes place throughout the gathering weekend and is open to all attendees. 100% of raffle proceeds go directly toward next year’s scholarship fund.

Together, through shared generosity and care, we continue to create a diverse, empowering, and accessible gathering for all who are called to join.

Here are our 2026 scholarships:

 

  • Indigenious/First Nations:  Scholarships available to First Nations/Indigenious women
  • disABLED Beings:  Scholarships available to beings with visual impairment, developmental disabilities, physical disabilities, Deaf/HOH, and/or chronic illnesses
  • Beings of Color:  Scholarships available for BIPOC, including multi-racial women
  • LGBTQ2IA+: Scholarship available to those identifying as LGBTQ2IA+
  • Elder and Sage Age: Scholarship available to women over 60+
  • Earth Tenders: Scholarship available to tenders & caretakers of the Earth
  • Guardian Gratitude: Scholarships available to mothers/caretakers/guardians

Scholarships include a full ticket (+ breakfast & dinner) for one session of the Gathering. This does not include travel or accommodations.

You are welcome to apply for more than one scholarship, but please be mindful that we receive a large number of applications and consider applying for one or two that are best suited for you. Please direct any scholarship questions to scholarships@spiritweaversgathering.com

 

Scholarships for the 2026 Gathering will open here March 3rd-17th.

 

*Note: The applications for scholarships are open at the same time as for our Worktrade program, which is another great way to join the gathering. If you’re interested in participating in the worktrade program in the event that you are not selected for a scholarship, we suggest applying for both programs during the application windows.
