Tulip Time Festival (www.tuliptime.com) announces plans for a 90thAnniversary Gala to benefit the “Join the Dance’ initiative on Saturday, March 23.

 

The Tulip Time Festival is committed to celebrate our Dutch Heritage, our warm and inviting community and of course, tulips. Together, we produce a world-class festival and elevate the experiences of a half million visitors each year. The community is invited to attend the Gala in support of the festival’s most popular events – Dutch Dance.

 

Dutch Dance strives to maintain cultural authenticity in the costumes worn by dancers. Each costume is modeled after period dress representing provinces of the Netherlands. Producing a Dutch Dance costume is no small feat! It can take an expert seamstress up to 15 hours to create a full costume – some with as many as eight finished pieces to complete the ensemble – at an average of $300 each costume. The Gala is designed to create a fund for Dutch Dance costumes and eliminate the cost of costuming as a barrier to participation. Your support will empower local students to Join the Dance.

 

Guests of the Gala, which will be held at the Holland Civic Center, will be treated to an unforgettable evening that will feature cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, an elegant dinner, live music, and extraordinary silent and live auctions.

 

Mark your calendars and save the date for this event now! Tickets will go on sale beginning Monday, January 14, 2019.  For more details on the Gala visit www.tuliptime.com/gala.  The Tulip Time Festival is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization.

 

Join the dance as we “paint the town orange”at Tulip Time’s 90thAnniversary celebration May 4-12, 2019. Detailed program and event information for Tulip Time 2019 is available on www.tuliptime.com. Tickets are now on sale for National Entertainment and Local Arts & Culture Series events. They can be purchased online at www.tuliptime.com, in person at the Tulip Time Festival Box Office located at 42 West 8thStreet, Holland, Michigan, or by phone at 800-822-2770.

It’s one of those years when going to Tulip Time may actually be one of the best times to see the tulips. 

 

The annual event runs through Sunday, May 13, — Mother’s Day — with flowers in abundance. A trip during this past weekend found the flowers at the Window on the Waterfront to be in full bloom, creating a colorful cascade for photographers of all skill levels. Tulips at Windmill Island were also in stages of blooming which assures that no matter when someone goes, they are bound to see the tulips. 

 

The Music Parade is Saturday, May 12. The parade is at 2 p.m.

 

There are a lot of free activities such as the Holland Friends of the Arts Show, the Tulip Time Quilt Show, and the 2018 Art in Bloom all at the Holland Area Arts Council, 150 E. 8th St. The Historic Plllar Church Tours starts at 57 E. 10th St. The Holland Garden Club Flower Show is at the Herrick District Library, 300 S. River Ave. and the Graafschap Heritage Center also has a show at 5973 Church St., Graafschap. 

 

A carnival is taking place at the Holland Civic Center lot, 150 W. 8th St., and the Dutch Market and entertainment is at the Commons at Evergreen, 480 State St.
