Ode to the May Queen — Spring Tea

Ode to the May Queen

Upon a throne of moss and vine, 
Where morning mist and light entwine, 
She calls the blossoms from their sleep
And seedlings buried cool and deep.

Her magic touches stream and dale.
It speaks of spring’s eternal tale.
Her scepter is a willow wand, 
That wakes the life in tree and pond.

The orchard boughs burst into bloom,
To banish every trace of gloom;
Through sunlit rain and morning dew, 
The ancient world is born anew.

—Bardlbus

A stroll and a story ... or a dozen

Huntington Beach is a beast. Spanning over 27 square miles, the city is larger than Manhattan! Many of HB's most famous locations and tales have blown away with the sand, but there are certain stories that never die.

Your 75-minute lantern-led walking tour circles the cobblestoned enclave at leisure, with plenty of opportunities to sit and take in the scenery. Dig into a century of facts, legends, lore and more, Fridays at 7pm at Studio 14. 

Donations just $20 ($25 at the door). Proceeds benefit our 501c3 arts philanthropy, bringing together creativity and community.
