Traditionally an international holiday celebrating workers and labor movements around the world, May Day gained relevance in the US during the Industrial Revolution of the early 20th century. The unionization that evolved marked the creation and ascendance of the American middle class. It was known for, among other things, stunning Art Deco posters and murals that promoted the labor movement and implored workers to "Unite" and to "Rise Up". Now it's time for Retired Workers of St. James to "Party Down". Join us at the new Woodlands gazebo for a BBQ and picnic catered by the Oak Island BBQ House. Pick up where you left off with your new progressive friends. B.Y.O.B.
