Summer Solstice Celebration
Jun 24, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
FreeOn June 24th, Piedmont Wildlife Center is welcoming more than the summer season. We’re welcoming YOU back to our cabin!
Join us at Leigh Farm Park from 1-3 PM for our Summer Solstice Celebration. Visit our reptile and mammal Ambassador Animals in the cabin, which will be open to visitors for the first time since 2020. Marvel at our new mural by artist Sarah Pritchard, shop PWC t-shirts and other merch at our pop-up Nature Store, and celebrate the unveiling of PWC’s very own Little Free Library. Then head over to Fox Circle for some quiet reflection… before joining in an exciting camp game or birds of prey tour!
All ages are welcome at this FREE event. Suggested donations of $10/family will support our conservation and education programs. We’ll also be accepting donations of books related to nature, wildlife, and/or our core values (gratitude, respect, curiosity, inclusivity, awareness) for our Little Free Library.
Light refreshments will be provided. It will likely be hot, so bring your reusable water bottle!
PLEASE NOTE: While our cabin is wheelchair accessible, some outdoor spaces at this event may be inaccessible to wheelchairs, walking aids, and those with additional mobility concerns. Since we are on a City of Durham park, we are limited in the improvements and additions we can implement. If you have any concerns or questions, please call us at 919-489-0900 prior to the event.
