Kick off summer at the Harvard Museums of Science & Culture's annual Summer Solstice celebration.

Enjoy a fun evening with circus performers, music, dance, food trucks, and hands-on activities for all ages, with free evening admission to the [Harvard Semitic Museum](http://semiticmuseum.fas.harvard.edu/home), [Collection of Historical Scientific Instruments](https://chsi.harvard.edu/), [Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology](https://www.peabody.harvard.edu/), and [Harvard Museum of Natural History](http://hmnh.harvard.edu/home).

You won't want to miss this special summer night featuring a special performance by the Revels Singers directed by George Emlen. Create your own summer crown with seasonal flowers and garden greens, turn yourself into royalty by making and wearing an Egyptian-inspired ornament, or craft your own sun streamer with powerful Aztec sun symbols.

Ben & Jerry’s ice cream and Bon Me’s pan-Asian delights will be available for purchase.   
  
The Summer Solstice Celebration is free and open to the public. In case of rain, the event will move inside the museums. Free event parking available at the [52 Oxford Street Garage](http://map.harvard.edu/?ctrx=760081.5&ctry=2963729.5&level=9&layers=Campus%20Base%20and%20Buildings,Map%20Text).
