BODY ART MOTION AND ATOZ ARTS PROUDLY PRESENT

THE 6TH ANNUAL MAGIC:
✦ Under the Solstice Moon ✦ Winter Show & Market

Join us for an evening of enchantment, artistry, and celebration as Body Art Motion and AtoZ Magickal Arts presents the 6th Annual MAGIC Winter Solstice Celebration — Under the Solstice Moon.

“Under the Solstice Moon” honors a universal truth — that even in darkness, light is born anew. It’s a celebration of artistry, renewal, and the inner fire that carries us through the winter months.

“We descend not to disappear, but to remember what roots us.
We rest, to gather strength.
We rise, because the light always returns.”

This year’s production transforms one of Calgary’s most magical historical buildings into a living winter dreamscape — an immersive Yule-inspired ritual of fusion bellydance dance, live vocals, theatre, and art.

Theatrical production of dance and storytelling featuring forest creatures, wise witches, and magical Fae.
 Wander through the Yule Market, featuring our favorite local artisans, bakers, jewelers and alchemists.
✦ Enjoy festive mocktails and seasonal treats from The Holy Griddle.
✦ Sway to curated soundscapes by Zephrym throughout the night.

Celebrate with friends and family in the heart of a supportive, magical community.

FULL DANCE THEATER SHOW
At the turning of the year — the longest night and a rare New Moon — both Sun and Moon have vanished from the sky. The world lies in darkness, waiting.

From this silence, the Fairy Godmother of Winter emerges — a timeless spirit who calls upon the creatures and fae of the forest to awaken. Owls, wolves, foxes, hares, witches, and queens gather under the Solstice Moon, guided by the Great White Stag, keeper of the returning light.

Together they journey through darkness and stillness to rediscover the flame that glows within us all. “Even in the darkest night, life is dreaming itself anew.”
