Beltane
May 2 @ 6:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Join us for a joyful evening of music, merriment, and more, to celebrate the peak of spring and the coming of summer. Enjoy wonderful music, set your intentions, participate in (or just watch) a maypole dance, and treats over the fire.
Doors open at 6:30pm. Festivities will begin with music by the Iowa City Madrigal, as we prepare the ribbons for the maypole dance. We will process a short distance to the circle, acknowledge sacred space, and dance the traditional Maypole dance (instructions for the simple steps of the dance will be given). After the dance ends and the ribbons are tied, we’ll move to the bonfire for treats and drinks. We will sing our farewells at 9:00 pm
This event is open to all ages and physical abilities, the general public, and UUS members – the more, the merrier!
