Description
Celebrate May Day with us! Our annual May Day Parade & Maypole Dance takes place Saturday, April 26th. This event is free and open to all, with the procession beginning at 11:45 a.m.
If you’d like to join in the short parade, meet at Festival Barn at 11:30 a.m. The procession will move from the Festival Barn, past the garden and down to the field outside the Craft Shop for the Maypole dance around noon. After the Maypole ribbons are tied there will be a simple circle dance, open to any attendees, followed by a performance by the Brasstown Morris Dance Teams. Festive dress & nature-themed costumes encouraged.
