Description

. May Day is a celebration that dates back millennia and brings with it lots of traditions and types of celebrations. In this fun, kids-centered event, we’ll celebrate the return of spring by making flower crowns and dancing around with handmade maypole wands as we commemorate some of these old time traditions. This event is best suited for children 7 and up. Beginning in 2022, Fox Haven will pay $2 from every ticket sale to the Piscataway Land Trust as a LandBack tax for the land Fox Haven inhabits. Land taxes to indigenous nations function similarly to paying rent or a home mortgage. Payments such as a mortgage provide access to living space, whereas LandBack taxes recognize our access to stolen Indigenous land. The Piscataway Land Trust is a long-term Indigenous-led effort led by the 501(c)(3) Cedarville Band of Piscataway Indians Inc. to restore and rematriate ancestral land and sovereignty in the Chesapeake region to Piscataway and other Chesapeake Indigenous people.
