3:30–6:30 PM
Café in the Woods • The Heron
Outdoors • Firelit • Dress Warm
Join us at The Heron for a Sunset Winter Solstice Ecstatic Dance, a gathering to honor the longest night of the year and welcome the official start of winter. Across many cultures, the Solstice has long been celebrated with rituals to honor the sun, give thanks, and kindle its return. Fires, dancing, and gathering in community have always been at the heart of it.
We’re celebrating the Winter Solstice at the Café in the Woods, where we’ll gather around the fire, sip warm cacao, ground into gratitude, and move together as the sun sets and the longest night of the year arrives.
A small altar will hold our intentions and offerings as we settle in. Then we’ll dance from sunset into darkness guided by firelight, connection, and music that moves the body and spirit with a DJ Set by Jimmy Wilson... Afterward, we’ll share a small potluck to close the evening in warmth and community.
Hot water and teas will be available throughout.
