Tarot 101

Tarot 101

Join us for an engaging in-person event at Tideline Public House located at 15 Newmarket Rd, Durham, NH on October 29, 2026 at 6:00 PM (Eastern Daylight Time).

Tarot reading is the skill of synthesizing card meanings, card positions, intuition, visual symbolism, and context. In this introductory Tarot reading workshop, deck creator Isabella Rotman will delve into the systems at work in tarot and nurture your natural tarot reading skills.

How do suits, numerology, and archetypes come together to make a card? Can you read without memorizing every card (yes!), and how does your intuition and personal experience affect a reading?

In this workshop, we will cover the foundational system of tarot, how to read for another person, and practice reading with a partner. No prior experience is necessary and all skill levels are welcome.

Isabella Rotman is an Eisner and Ignatz Award nominated cartoonist and illustrator living and drawing in Maine. She is a founding organizer of Comic Arts Maine Portland.

Tideline Public House offers a unique atmosphere with food trucks and an in-house kitchen + taproom. You can bring your food and drink into the event, or better yet, arrive early to enjoy a meal before settling in to learn about tarot card reading.
