Aug 22–23, 2026 · Adirondack Labyrinth
Bakers Mills, NY
JUST OUTSIDE OF NORTH CREEK | 40 MINUTES FROM LAKE GEORGE
A Weekend Celebration! Choose your chapter: a sacred Saturday night with candlelight and the starry sky; a slow Sunday morning with meditative labyrinth walk and community breakfast, or a relaxed Sunday afternoon of live music, solar viewing, picnic time, play, and cake.
Come for 1, 2, or all 3.
Event supported in part by the Town of Johnsburg Occupancy Tax Committee
Before the candlelight, the stars, the music, or the morning mist, there is the land: 100 quiet acres in Bakers Mills, home to Asa Adirondack and the Adirondack Labyrinth.
A Hidden Gem in the Southern Adirondacks
Choose the chapter that matches your mood.
Come for candlelight and stars, morning quiet, or an afternoon of music and summer joy. Each chapter stands on its own — and together, they create the full Starlight & Stone weekend arc.
