ELS/Winter Solstice 2024

Pictures from the Fremont Winter Solstice Feast several years ago. I was a big potluck with ~200 people!

In years past, the Fremont Arts Council held an annual feast for the winter solstice. FAC's winter feast seems to have fallen by the wayside, but we are carrying on the tradition (much more modestly) and hosting our own potluck at ELS. We'll focus on food, friends, a ritual to signal the promise of brighter days ahead of us. Festive dress and a musical instrument to play both would be welcome!

Winter Solstice is Saturday, December 21 2024. That's when we'll be having dinner.
