Making May Day Workshop
This year's May Day Celebration will take place on Wednesday, May 1st, 2024 at 6pm in Wright Park.
Traditional May Day songs, dances, flower crowns, processions, and maypole dances will all be part of the fun. Led by Puget Sound Revels, Tacomarama Street Band, and Tacoma Urban Performing Arts Center (T.U.P.A.C.), attendees will be invited to join in as we celebrate this special moment in the year. If you'd like to help make this May Day event special, please register for the Making May Day Workshop. In this free workshop series we’ll learn about May Day traditions in various cultures, as well as preparing songs, poems, and dances and creating artwork to carry in our May Day procession. We’ll try our skill at a traditional sword dance and learn a parade routine combining our skills and artwork. Attendees will then help host and lead the May Day Festivities. Adults and Children ages 8 and up. Youth under 12 should be accompanied by an adult. Each session will include singing, dancing and art and will build on previous sessions to prepare us for the big day!
