Solstice at Maryhill Stonehenge 2026

Commemorate the solstice with camping + entertainment at Maryhill Museum of Art followed by a sunrise ceremony at Stonehenge Memorial.

This inclusive event is for everyone, joining together to set positive personal intentions as the sun rises.

What to Expect

Head to Maryhill Museum of Art on the eve of the summer solstice for a special campout on the lush museum campus. Explore the museum after-hours, then retire to the Great Lawn for an evening of music, gentle yoga, and storytelling.

Early the next morning, just before sunrise, make your way to the Stonehenge Memorial Monument, 3 miles east of the museum and join us for a ritual to express gratitude for the day and its symbolic meanings, set positive intentions, and contribute or listen to music and spoken word art as the sun’s rays light up the Stonehenge Memorial.

The ceremony will be followed by an opportunity to enjoy breakfast at the museum, packing out, and admission to the museum and museum campus for the rest of the day.
