## Caption

🎉 Today we’re soaking in the spring sunshine for May Day here in Seattle, alongside Nordic communities worldwide. From Finland’s Vappu to Sweden’s Valborg, May 1 is all about celebration, community, and the arrival of warmer days.

Think grad caps, munkki (cardamom doughnuts), tippaleipä (funnel cakes), and park picnics with a glass of sima—a sweet, fizzy mead.

At the National Nordic Museum, we’re proud to connect generations through Nordic traditions like these—honoring the past while inspiring curiosity and cultural understanding for the future.

👉 How are you celebrating May Day? Tell us in the comments!
