An appreciation of Pete Seeger's music and work on his 86th birthday, May 3, 2005.

Events are planned throughout the country on or around May 3 to honor Pete's music and all Pete has done and is doing in so many ways to help make this a better world.

If you'd like to be a part of this nationwide outpouring of appreciation and affection, this is the place to find out what is happening near you, or for you to let everyone know about an event that you would like to coordinate.

We encourage events to be free and open to the public where possible.

It was a great celebration -- this site is now closed until next year!
