About this Event
Celebrate the hardworking art and aquatic ecosystems that shape life in our city! Through performance and interactive art-making, we’re throwing a party for these mighty workforces!
Take part in an experiential puppet procession, featuring giant, larger-than-life aquatic creations that bring the climate-resilient magic of the underwater oyster reef to the surface. Then, in workshops to create your own personal regalia, drawing inspiration from May 1st’s significance as International Workers’ Day.
