dailybell: sun events: 6/20-21 lulu & the solstice

dailybell

2008 was the inaugural year in an ongoing, aspirational project dedicated to the observation of the sun every time it crosses the horizon and to sharing the awareness of that moment with others while ringing bells. It is based on the conviction that something as inarguable as the movement of the earth can be used as a point of unity and awareness among large groups of people who might otherwise find it impossible to agree.

Two sunsets for the Solstice: June 20th was the actual Solstice this year (Leap Day inserted that extra day in there). June 21st is the traditional celebration for the Garden of Memory ordinarily held at the Chapel of the Chimes. Everyone was invited to ring and sing in place this year, connecting through our collective memory and present virtual community observation.
