This year Limbsnapping presents to you the Hummingbird Ball. A celebration of the power of community and the centrality of standing in solidarity and unity with our brothers, sisters, and siblings across our nation and our world.
The Hummingbird as an animal is the smallest of all migratory birds, traveling large distances seeking sustenance and bringing joy to the places it chooses to rest and call home- even if it's just for a season. Limbsnapping has always been a small affair (by art and musical festival standards) that has always felt so much larger than itself. This year we seek to bring ourselves closer to one another, as the world tries to tear us apart.
This is your invitation to join us for a weekend focusing on solidarity, expression, and community. Following Friday and our exciting lineup of musicians and Saturday’s day time activities the Ball shall begin as dinner is served.
For the first time we are asking that our guests create a costume, to celebrate the hummingbird in whatever your spirit may feel. As you create your costume we encourage you to set aside self-judgement and embrace the creativity that is in you and in all other humans.
Celebrate with us the Hummingbird, just as it knows instinctively where it must go to find sustenance, so do we Limbsnappers.
See you at the ball

Snapping Activities
Limbsnapping is more than just the best party you've ever been to. It's also a beautiful opportunity for our community to share their talents and passions with each other — and also for some adventure! From zip lining to restorative yoga, to hay rides, farm tours and creek swimming, we hope you’ll find even more to enjoy.

Sunday Market
Our community is made up of creators of all kinds — from artists to fabricators to farmers. Enjoy a sweet sendoff after a stroll through the marketplace on Sunday morning and support our community of makers.
