Bealtaine Potluck and Ritual – Hosted by Earth Centered Spirituality – May 2

Saturday, May 2
5 – 7 pm in the Courtyard at First Unitarian Church of Dallas

Join “Spiritual: Earth Centered Spirituality” in Realm to RSVP & stay connected.

*Rain or shine – we reserved Channing Social Hall this year in case of rain, and can move festivities inside if needed.

Join us for a joyful celebration of Bealtaine (also known as Beltane or May Day), the vibrant Gaelic festival that marks the height of spring and the coming of summer!

What to expect:

🌸 Flower crown making – Upon arrival, we’ll kick off the festivities with flower crown making. Materials will be provided, but you’re encouraged to bring your own favorite flowers, greenery, or ribbons to make your crown uniquely yours!

🍽 Community potluck – Please bring a dish to share — anything from a seasonal favorite to a beloved family recipe.

🌈 Maypole Dance – Together, we’ll weave colorful ribbons around the pole in a joyful celebration of life, vitality, and community. No experience needed — we’ll guide you through it!

This event is family-friendly and open to all! Whether you are well-versed in Bealtaine traditions or simply looking for a welcoming space to celebrate the season, we invite individuals of all backgrounds and beliefs to join us. Our monthly gatherings offer a chance to honor the rhythms of nature and strengthen our connections to each other and the world around us.

We look forward to celebrating with you!
