This year, we’ll be at King Arts Complex again and are excited to bring in valuable resources from our community, delicious food, and entertainment! We’re excited and hope you are, too. After all, it’s all to celebrate you — the workers!

We’d love you and your organization or business to help sponsor May Day, or for individuals to make a Community Solidarity Donation.
