Event Details

The winter solstice marks the shortest day of the year. Celebrate this turning point and light up the year’s longest night with The Nature Conservancy in New Hampshire. 

Join us on Thursday, December 18, for what has become a much-anticipated yearly gathering of friends, food and fun—so much so that we need a bigger space! 

The evening is open-house style and free, and we warmly invite you to join us at the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center, the iconic air and space museum, for drinks, light appetizers and holiday cheer. Come celebrate partnership, mingle with other nature lovers and celebrate the season! Drop in any time between 5:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. There is ample free and accessible parking on site. Attendees will also have the freedom to explore the Discovery Center and its exhibits during the event. 

Pre-registration is encouraged so that we can ensure we properly plan for our guests. Please let us know if you think you may come by filling out our registration form. Are you a game-day decision-maker? You can still register at the door. We look forward to celebrating with you!
