Details

The darkness of the winter solstice comes every December, but so does our Solstice party with food, great music, and warm friends.

This month will be a little different from most assemblies; we won't have either a speaker or a workshop. Instead, we focus on three things: a potluck of food, a buffet of songs from our band, and a smorgasbord of readings, jokes, science facts, and cheer from our Assemblers.

This year, we're taking time to consider our connection to the night and its stars—of the darkness and the brightness that comes through.

Your contribution to that smorgasbord, however small, is what makes this Assembly special. It doesn't have to be on topic, but it's a good place to look for inspiration.

Know something sciencey about the stars? Have a favorite wintry poem? Did a snippet of an advice column or book help you see the holidays differently? Have some cute pictures of animals? Bring it!

(But please tell us first! Use the Discord invite or email Sam at [info@sundayassemblychapelhill.org](http://mailto:info@sundayassemblychapelhill.org/?subject=Winter%20Solstice)).

After the assembly, we start the potluck! Bring something simple, fancy, store-bought, anything! As with the Assembly itself, this is a time for us to share in making the warmth.

The venue has a kitchen, complete with fridge, ovens, plates, bowls, and silverware.

Thanks to everyone who has been part of this amazing community over the past year, and welcome to any new faces we see in December! Lets come together to give cheer to the shortest days of the year.
