HumanLight

At a time of year soaked and sopping with religion, the annual HumanLight/Winter Solstice Party lets us humanists & freethinkers be festive, lets us celebrate common values and friendship. Celebrating Humanist ideals and values: reason, compassion, hope, science, kindness, joy & community.  All that.

Our party will include a potluck, live music, a charity drive, and lots of socializing. Our event is family-friendly, so bring the kiddos too.

The Potluck: Bring a dish to share. Please bring your food already prepared and ready to serve, including serving utensils for your dish. No kitchen facilities or outlets are available. Those little tealight warmers might be OK.
   - BYO beverages. We will provide water & hot coffee.
   - Also provided are: plates, bowls, utensils, napkins, and cups.

Live music: Instrumentals and vocals in keeping with our happy celebration of solstice and Human Light.

The Charity Drive: Food for humans & pets. We will collect nonperishable food and other necessities for two local charities, the River City Food Bank and the Sacramento Pet Food Bank (helping the pets of the homeless). Contributions are encouraged but not required. This is a wonderful opportunity for the freethought community to come together and show their compassion and kindness for others in need in our local community.

Sponsors are Atheists and Other Freethinkers (AOF), Sunday Assembly, Reason Center and California Freethought Day.
