A City in Celebration: The Legacy and Love Behind Jackson’s May Day Festival

This spring, the city of Jackson will once again embrace a Westside Civic Engagement Club (WSCC) tradition that is quickly becoming one of the Westside neighborhood’s most enduring and beloved community gatherings: the annual May Day Festival. Now celebrating its 37th year, the festival returns May 1 and May 2, bringing with it a powerful reminder of what happens when Jackson communities show up for one another.
