In the deep of winter, we remember. We remember our losses and remember what
\nendures. For this year\u2019s longest night year, the performers of Winter
\nSolsticCelebration create a sweeping tribute to John Lennon on the 30th
\nanniversary of his death.<\/p>\n

The two-hour Solstice Service showcases music, dance, poetry, ceremony,
\nsong, circus arts, storytelling, magic and participatory movement to convey
\nthe concepts that John Lennon and the Beatles championed such as peace,
\nlove, transcendence, creativity and understanding to create a deeply moving
\njourney. An exuberant Magical Mystery Tour themed opening ceremony
\nintegrates song, spectacle, circus arts and large props.<\/p>\n

Before and after the two-hour Solstice Service, a Yule Fest regales with
\nlive music, roving characters, and photos with Father Winter. At the Peace
\nZone, learn how to Imagine Peace all year long and sign up for tours of the
\nInterfaith Peace Chapel.<\/p>\n

Bring donations of canned meat, fish and saltine crackers, plus winterwear
\nitems, for the Cathedral of Hope assistance programs. After the Solstice
\nService, the Yule Fest continues and snack food is shared as a community
\nrepast.<\/p>\n
