Exploring Mummering and House Visiting Traditions: A 15th Anniversary Retrospective
As we celebrate our 15th anniversary, we want to take the opportunity to review all those fun and foolish traditions that brought the Mummers Festival about! Join presenter Terra Barrett and facilitator Dale Jarvis for a presentation on the history of mummering, janneying, ribbon fools, hobby horses, wren boys and more. We’ll explore the background, complete with special appearances by some of these colorful characters.
