Winter Solstice Lantern Celebration

Celebrate the shortest day of the year and welcome the lengthening days ahead with a candlelit evening walk on the trails of the Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary. The evening will begin by making your own mason jar lantern in our cozy, heated barn while sanctuary naturalists share the science of the solstice. With your own lantern in hand, we'll light up the night with a stroll through the forest and perhaps catch sights or sounds of animal activity during the winter season.
