Oh hey! You gonna be up early doors for the Squash Gathering for Peace on Saturday 21st June? It's the longest day of the year....
See post below for the details ❤️
SUMMER SOLSTICE, GATHERING FOR PEACE. SATURDAY 21ST JUNE. EARLY MORN FROM 6AM.
A fortnight today, come and gather with us in peace and for peace.
In these dark times, the summer solstice comes around again, the day of most light. This solstice, we will be shining light on all who are oppressed and struggling, at home and afar. We invite you to join in, in the park and on the street, to gather for peace. Together, we’ll make a space for contemplation, conversation, comfort, warmth by the fire, drawing, planting and gentle moving.
Bring your songs, your stories, your sadness, your hopes and your solidarity to share.
We will be honouring those living and dying through genocide, famine & conflict including people in Congo, Myanamar, Palestine, Sudan, Ukraine and Yemen. We will be collecting for who support Al-Sabeen children's hospital in Yemen and for who support displaced families in Gaza.
Meet the Squash travellers, journeying with fire & plants, from the solstice dawn to meet you.
6AM – 8AM, IN PRINCES PARK, UNDER THE BIG OAK NEAR WOODHENGE, BELVEDERE RD GATE
Come gather with your community around the fire early on Summer Solstice morn. Seating will be available or bring a cushion and a blanket for a gentle hang out.
10AM – 12 NOON, IN FRONT OF SQUASH BUILDING
Come and help draw a community of suns on the street. Plus the street sofa will be out for gentle chats and solstice herb tea.
