All Species Day is THIS Sunday 12-4pm. All Species Day is a multigenerational event to honor and celebrate the arrival of spring and the interconnected web of life on Earth. Montpelier is one of the only cities in the nation to celebrate this holiday, so come and experience it for yourself! Bring your friends and family of all ages. You are encouraged to dress as your favorite species--winged ones, legged ones, finned and scaly ones, and rooted ones are all welcome! Just joining as yourself--a two legged human--is welcome too! There's singing, dancing, drumming, music and connection.
