2023 Events Calendar


Throughout the year, Revels celebrates community through traditional (and not so traditional) arts. Events and gatherings include dances, sings, concerts, salons, The Midwinter Revels and more.

Summer

Oceanfest
June 4, 10am - 5pm
Foss Waterway Seaport Museum
​Check out all the festivities here. Puget Sound Revels will host an arts and crafts table where kids of all ages can create sea life out of recycled materials, with a theme of repurposing, reimagining, and recycling our “trash”. The festival organizers have put together a stunning FREE event filled with song, dance, and deep appreciation for our waters. Come check out the festivities!
​
​Juneteenth and Summer Solstice Celebration
June 21, 7 - 8pm 
Eastside Community Center, 1721 East 56th St, Tacoma WA 98404
On June 21st, we're gathering to mark the summer solstice and honor Juneteenth. We will have singing, poetry, and a story or two. If you have something you'd like to share, let us know and we'll add you to the festivities! Together we'll shine some bright solstice light on the longest day, the longest wait, and the work that still awaits our hearts, souls, and our energies.

Autumn

Abbots Bromliad      
Date TBD
​Peoples Park, Tacoma 
Free for all ages

Dancing with antlers!
People who come to The Midwinter Revels are fascinated (or mystified!) by the Abbots Bromley Horn Dance.  So, just for fun, we hold a Bromliad. Come learn the dance. Bring your own antlers (branches can make pretty good antlers – or hands). Or just bring a picnic and watch. We’ll also play some games, sing a few rounds, and have an art project with Mauricio Robalino for children to do.
FUN!

Tacoma Sings
Date TBD
​​Bridge of Glass

​Singing on the Bridge of Glass to sing-out summer and sing-in autumn. We’ll distribute song sheets and encourage everyone to join in. After singing at various places on the bridge, we'll wrap up with a few lovely rounds in the amphitheater beside the History Museum. Bring a lantern. We’ll light them as the sun sets. Beautiful.
A bit from our 2020 "Covid" Bridge Sing.
