Enjoy an amazing summer BBQ (vegetarian options available) from Providence's own Easy Entertaining. Easy Entertaining has committed to using only compostable dinnerware during our event. Local musician, Jose "Panman" Costa will provide the summer vibes with his relaxing steel drums, and you will have the opportunity to work with Moonrose Farm from Rehoboth to create your own traditional solstice flower crown!
The silent auction will feature unique items and experiences: from exclusive Audubon nature excursions and artwork by local artists to luxury getaways and gourmet baskets.
And what's an Audubon event without a special visit from one of our Avian Ambassadors!?
The celebration will begin at 6:00 pm for general admission ticket holders. The advance reception for VIP and Deluxe ticketholders at 5:30 pm will feature an opportunity to create a flower crown and includes reserved seating and drink ticket.

About the Fundraiser
The 2024 Solstice Soiree takes the place of our Party for the Peregrines this year as the Audubon Society of Rhode Island's major annual fundraising event. Thanks to the dedication of in-kind auction item donors, and the generous bidding by event guests, proceeds from the auction helps Audubon protect local wildlife habitats, deliver impactful environmental education programs, and advocate for sound environmental policies in Rhode Island.
