Mutual Aid Picnic | May Day General Strike
Join Traverse Indivisible for a community Mutual Aid Picnic at Rotary Square as part of the May 1 General Strike.
This is an informal gathering where individuals, families, businesses, and organizations come together to build community and practice mutual aid. Bring a beach chair or blanket and spend the day with your neighbors.
Bring something to share: food, clothing donations, educational materials, petitions, whatever you can contribute. No monetary exchange, just free sharing.
Traverse Indivisible will be accepting non-perishable food donations for the Grace Episcopal Food Pantry, and new item donations for the Jubilee House Outreach.
This is not a traditional protest. It’s an intentional gathering to exercise our collective power and show what’s possible when we prioritize people over profit.
What to bring:
• Beach chairs or blankets
• Something to share
• Handheld signs are fine
What NOT to bring:
• Tables
• Electronic music or amplified audio
• Alcohol
• No signs in the ground
• Absolutely no weapons of any kind
GOOD WEATHER ONLY. This event will only happen if conditions are favorable. Signing up here is the best way to receive automated alerts about the event status on May 1.
