I found it, using Blockchair as a free and easy search tool.

The first transaction sent to a P2WSH address is this one:

[461e8a4aa0a0e75c06602c505bd7aa06e7116ba5cd98fd6e046e8cbeb00379d6](https://mempool.space/tx/461e8a4aa0a0e75c06602c505bd7aa06e7116ba5cd98fd6e046e8cbeb00379d6)

It occurred in the same block as the first P2WPKH transaction.

At the time of writing, it still has not been spent.

The first transaction that has spent funds from P2WSH is this one:

[cab75da6d7fe1531c881d4efdb4826410a2604aa9e6442ab12a08363f34fb408](https://mempool.space/tx/cab75da6d7fe1531c881d4efdb4826410a2604aa9e6442ab12a08363f34fb408)

It occurred a couple days later.
