Winter Solstice Gathering
Sunday, December 21, 2025 (5:30 pm)

Join us at Ferry Beach for a solstice ceremony. There will be a bonfire, singing and an opportunity to share a year ending ritual connected to many cultures and with many ancestors. 

Please come prepared with what you will be letting go of (metaphorically) from this past year, and what you would like to bring in to the new year. Ferry Beach will be celebrating our resilience as an organization, as people, and as a community. Dress warmly as we will be outside! Snacks might be provided as well.

​​
Please sign up here to let us know you plan to attend. Walk-ins allowed for cash payment at the door.
