The Winter Solabration is a community celebration of Christmas and Solstice customs.  Dancers, singers, musicians, actors, and other performers participate in bringing in the new year at the time of the Winter Solstice — the year's longest night.  Other participants, besides buying a ticket to help cover the cost of the event, bring a snack or dessert potluck to share.  We encourage everyone to participate in community singing and dancing.  The dancing consists primarily of traditional American community dances, all of which are taught and walked through so that all who wish to may join in.  This year's revelry features a mummer's play, English rapper sword with the Solstice Sword Dancers,and Morris dance performances by the Maroon Bells Morris.   The evening begins with wassail and caroling, Bryan Connolly Extreme Juggling, storyteller Susan Marie Frontczak, and concludes with a performance of the mysterious Abbot's Bromley Horn Dance.

There will be balloon magic and juggling during the evening for the kids.  We encourage you to bring your kids, however, parents must be responsible for their children's behavior.  We want to provide entertainment suitable for the whole family.  If your child needs a baby-sitter though, please leave the child at home with one, or bring one with you.
