Varthing: A Celebration of the First Day of Summer 2018, April 12-15, 2018

Throughout Scandinavia, Sommardag, the first day of Summer, is celebrated on April 14 as the beginning of the bright half of the year, a tradition recorded in the stories of the Old Norse. A budding tree marks the day on the ancient runic calendar. These runic calendars represented the year as being divided into Winter and Summer activities and festivals. As part of our celebration, we will turn our rune calendar over and celebrate the coming of summer.
