Maypole Installation and Performance
Sat Oct 18 2025 12:00PM – 4:00PM
Event Description:
I am collaborating with Kim Anno on the Free Speech Symposium to be held on Oct. 18th, 10am-3pm. My segment, entitled Masquerade and Maypole: The Embodied Resistance Practices of the Barbados Landship, will consist of a maypole activation by my class, ETHST 2000-10 The Body's Wisdom: Performance and Resistance. The maypole is quite light and mobile, standing about 11 feet tall and has a fairly wide base of 4 feet. This activation will be similar to the one held last Spring on the Upper Ground Quad for the CCA@CCA series. The set up would begin from around 12:30pm on the same day of the event. The activation will take place between 2:30-3pm. We will remove the pole by 3:30pm latest.
