36th Annual Bread & Roses Heritage Festival (virtual) ~ 12 noon to 6pm EDT ~ https://www.facebook.com/events/304857037180947 ~ This year we have all been faced with some great challenges one of those challenges is figuring out how to bring our great supporters the 36th Annual Bread And Roses Heritage Festival. With the current circumstances in mind there were two things that we as a board knew were of the utmost importance, the safety of our supporters and community and finding a way to continue the mission and message of our great festival. During these uncertain times the fight for workers rights is more important than ever and luckily our programming lends itself to transitioning to a virtual format. We have had the fortune of cultivating a strong online following in years past and are excited to be able to share this year's festival all around the world. As the region’s only true Labor Day festival the 36th Annual Bread & Roses Heritage Festival will do it's best to bring all of the things you have grown to know and love from our festival as well as some new exciting features and highlight Lawrence, Massachusetts’ multi-cultural roots and rich labor history while commemorating the most significant event in Lawrence history: the 1912 Bread and Roses Strike. Stay tuned as we will soon be providing all of this year's details. We are working very hard to bring you a remarkable experience that you will be able to enjoy from the comfort of your own home.
