Winter is coming, heralded by Bold Orion as he rises in the clear cold sky. And while it turns out he is not older than than continents, he's still been the harbinger of the Winter Solstice for as long as humanity can remember.

This year, Lighthaven is opening it's doors for Solstice Season. This has several features:

The Berkeley Winter Solstice* celebration will be held on Dec 6th. We'll be singing songs together about the story of humanity, and facing dark, difficult truths.

The West Coast Megameetup will take place December 5th and 6th.

And, rooms and day-passes are available at Lighthaven, all of December.
