Summer SOLSTICE returns for a full day of healing, creativity, and community connection.

The event invites attendees of all ages to replenish mind, body, and soul through free and low-cost experiences, including sound meditation, yoga, flower crown making, herb-based rituals, horticulture tours, and a collaborative nature mandala. Poetry readings and pop-up musical performances throughout the day add a touch of magic to the natural setting.
