You’re invited to celebrate the longest night with Audubon. The days get longer after this night and you can cheer that on with a bonfire, snacks, and a reflective hike.

The Winter Solstice has long been celebrated around the world in many cultures. The longest night of the year symbolizes winter, but also the returning of the light as the days begin to lengthen. Following a winter path, Audubon will have a bonfire blazing at the Urban Pavilion on the west side of the property. A naturalist will lead a reflective hike through the nighttime trails. Snacks and warm drinks are provided to warm cold fingers and spark conversation and laughter. Come and celebrate the season in a down-to-earth fashion before the whirlwind of the holidays embraces you.

Special Information: This program is outdoors. Please plan to walk a quarter mile to the bonfire site and dress for the weather.
