The Spirit of our Ancestors Festival is a day set aside to celebrate the 110 captives aboard Clotilda. Celebrated annually in February in honor of Black History Month, the festival consists of drumming, a libation ceremony, family stories, a keynote speaker, and the play, An Ocean in my Bones, by award-winning playwright Terrance Spivey.
Volunteers are needed on February 4th and 5th to help with registration and to serve as greeters, ushers, and food servers.
