Heikinpäivä activities begin this week.
After two years off because of COVID-19 issues, the mid-winter celebration is back. Opening events include a two-part inkle band weaving class that starts Wednesday, and additional enrichment classes through the month.
While the schedule includes many of the traditional activities, Jim Kurtti of the Finnish Theme Committee says there are some popular events missing…
Anyone who wants to organize either of those events can contact the Finnish American Heritage Center.
The Family Fun Night and Hobby Horse Hoedown will take place January 20th from 6:00 until 8:00 at the Finnish American Heritage Center.
Heikinpäivä will conclude January 28th, with the parade through downtown Hancock, the tori, and the outdoor games at Quincy Green, and the evening dance and light buffet at the Finnish American Heritage Center.
