Description
Imagine the longest day of sunlight surrounded by nature in an intimate setting with the sounds of renowned harpist, Laura Fako Utley.
Since ancient times, Summer Solstice traditions have included gathering with family and friends to celebrate the return of sunlight, life, fertility, and the potential for a good harvest. Today, people worldwide still celebrate summer's arrival, or midsummer, with outdoor feasts and festivities, including singing, dancing, musical performances or concerts, bonfires, and enjoying delicious food and drinks. We invite you to celebrate Summer Solstice Anderson Humane style! Enjoy:
