Westside community holds May Day parade, festival

The Westside Community May Day Parade and Festival is underway, organizers said, bringing neighbors together for a springtime celebration.

May Day, traditionally observed May 1, is marked in many places by public gatherings that celebrate spring and community. In the United States, local May Day events often include parades, music, and family-oriented activities that highlight neighborhood culture.

Community festivals such as this one typically provide opportunities for local artists, small businesses and volunteer groups to engage residents and visitors. They can serve as a focal point for civic pride and for reconnecting neighbors after months apart.

Details about the Westside event’s schedule, parade route and planned participants were limited in the initial notice. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
