Nature’s Gay Solstice at Revive The Roots
Celebrate the solstice with nature walks, puppet-making, music-making, games & a magical puppet performance! ☀️ Spend the longest day of the year at Revive The Roots, celebrating queer joy, creativity, music, and community in nature! ☀️ Join us on June 21st from 12:30–4:00 PM for a playful outdoor gathering featuring guided nature walks with Queer Hikes, eco-art puppet making with the Woonasquatucket River Watershed Council, a community sound garden, lawn games, and a magical performance by Wicked Queer Puppet Theater.
