A fundraiser for the Cumberland Museum and Archives.


All are welcome.


Also on May 1 - Bring your banners, costumes, picket and protests signs and join in the Cumberland May Day parade: a joyous, radical celebration of all working people and those who struggle for a better world. Gather at the village square at 5pm.


The parade will move west along Dunsmuir to the parking lot behind the Museum. From there, you'll have a chance to get your seats for the annual Bean Supper.
