Pinkster - An African-American Celebration Of Spring

Philipsburg Manor
Sunday, May 17, 2009

Pinkster was held in the Hudson Valley as early as the 17th century. Filled with music, dance, food, and revelry, this cross-cultural festival re-creates the spring holiday with a rousing colonial-style celebration. Festivities include lively presentations of drumming and traditional dance, African folktales, and demonstrations of traditional African instruments and utilitarian wares. Chef El-Amin cooks up lots of great food.
