May Fair: Call for Donations and Volunteers

May Fair is our annual festival that ritually welcomes Spring. This event engages the students with the larger community and celebrates the spirit in which Waldorf schools nourish and support the child's connection to nature and the seasonal cycles.

Our entire community works together to create this festival as a wonderful way to share the spirit of WSP with the public, to raise funds for the school, and to have a heartwarming experience as a community working together. There are many ways to help!

Please consider making a material donation to support any of the activities featured at May Fair. We are offering volunteer hours in exchange for material donations. Any donations equal to $20 can be logged as one hour of volunteer time.

Below you will find lists of needed materials. All can be dropped off in the front office.

• stem clippers (marked with name to be returned after May Fair)

• Raffia to braid for crowns (see an example here)
