Greetings! You are joyfully invited to May Day. This free event celebrates the beginning of summer with features including a community potluck picnic, flower headdress making, children's games, live music, and of course a dance around the Maypole. All ages are welcome.

Please bring a dish to share (and a label specifying ingredients; gluten-free/nut-free encouraged but not required). You may also optionally choose to bring a picnic blanket. Please bring flowers from your garden if you have some to spare for making headdresses (a few flowers and materials will also be provided).

For the Maypole dance, we will be having a more directed & intentional weaving of the Maypole ribbon this year led by one of our creative members. We have 50 ribbons waiting for folks to claim them. The sign up is here.

For friends of Rodman Miller (long term May Day organizer), note that a small remembrance will be held around the Maypole after the dance.
