About this Event

🌞 Spark Jam Community Solstice Celebration – Dec 21, 2025

The Winter Solstice invites us to slow down, reflect, and reconnect — with ourselves, with each other, and with the rhythms that carry us through the darkest days of the year.
This special edition of Spark Jam weaves together meditation, play, music, and community in one long, glowing arc.

Join us for an afternoon and evening of presence, movement, warmth, and co-created magic.


✨ Event Flow

🕞 3:30 PM – Doors Open
Arrive gently. Settle in. Tea, mats, blankets, soft light.

🧘 4:00 PM – Guided Meditation with Anat
A grounding practice to open the body and soften the mind.

🤝 4:15 PM – Relating Games with Saena
Light, playful connection exercises to help us arrive as a community and feel at ease with one another.

🎵 5:00–7:00 PM – Spark Jam Collective: Live Music Journey
An improvised musical arc shaped by drums, brass, strings, voices, and the movement of the dancers.
No choreography. No setlist. Dance like no one's watching - no phones / photography or video of the journey
Just presence, breath, and community shaping the sound in real time.

🥗 7:00–8:00 PM – Potluck + Hangout Space
Bring something to share (optional).
Rest, eat, talk, stretch out, connect with friends new and old.
We’ll wrap up gradually as the energy winds down.



🌟 What This Solstice Jam Is About
  • Slowing down and listening inward
  • Returning to warmth, softness, and community
  • Dancing as a form of prayer, celebration, and release
  • Letting live improvised music carry you
  • Marking the longest night of the year together

This is not just another jam — it’s a seasonal ritual of sound, movement, and belonging.



🪘 What to Expect
  • Live improvised music from the Spark Jam Collective
  • An open dance floor (shoes off) with some mats on the side for resting
  • A sober, welcoming space for all bodies
  • Opportunities for grounding, play, and connection
  • Gentle lighting, beautiful atmosphere, and community care
