A traditional May festival coordinated through the Massie Center, this program has been a Massie School event since the 1850s. Each year, elementary school children from the Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools gather for this multicultural event to perform a variety of ethnic dances, in addition to the May Pole Dance, in Calhoun Square just in front of Massie School.
