Marzanna is a traditional Slavic figure representing winter, and every year, people in Poland make a straw doll and burn or drown her to mark the start of spring.
Join us on March 21st for our own “Drowning of Marzanna” celebration!
We’ll meet at Highbanks Metro Park at 12:30 PM to send Marzanna away and celebrate the arrival of longer days and warmer weather.
Everyone is welcome—bring family and friends, dress for the weather, and get ready to shout “goodbye winter, hello spring!” as we send Marzanna off until next year.
