Winter Solstice Lantern Walk
December 21, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
Bundle up and join us in the prairie for the Winter Solstice! This solstice marks the longest night and shortest day of the year, as well as the official beginning of winter. To celebrate, we’ll gather together at dusk with lanterns to enjoy the beauty of the season and the return of the sun. We encourage you to bring your own handmade lantern illuminated with an LED light or borrow one of ours and walk with us through the Lakeview Prairie Labyrinth.
Bring your friends and family, but please leave your pets at home. This walk is held entirely outside, we encourage you to dress appropriately for the weather and walking. The Lakeview Prairie Labyrinth is a half mile to the center and a processional path is available for a faster exit from the center. For everyone’s safety, we ask that you only use LED lights and no live flame candles. We can’t wait to celebrate the solstice with you in the prairie!
