Join us for a Summer Solstice Gathering – an invitation to pause and reflect upon the longest day of the year, a time when the sun’s power reaches its zenith and abundant life flourishes all around us.
We meet outside, in a circle, and open ourselves to learn from the earth and trees, the waters and sky, and all living beings, human and more than human. This gathering will include contemplative practices, silent wandering, song and fellowship. We are a diverse, LGBTQ+ affirming community and welcome all faiths and beliefs. Please join us!

To Bring:
* A folding chair or blanket to sit on.
* Dress to be comfortable outside and wear sturdy shoes. Bring water to stay hydrated, and insect repellent, if needed.
* Food to share (optional). Our food theme for this gathering is sunshine! What food makes you feel sunny? If nothing comes to mind, bring whatever appeals to you! Locally produced items or something you made are ideal.
Carpool to reduce our impact on the earth. Please arrive 15 minutes early - it is a 5 - 10 minute walk from the parking lot to the amphitheater.
The gathering will occur regardless of weather. You are invited to join us in experiencing the natural world in all of its seasons. Please dress appropriately. There is a small pavilion onsite we can retreat to during the gathering if needed.
