	Ritual, Ceremony and the Holidays: Why and How We Celebrate

	Why in Spring does a bunny secretly deliver treats overnight to children? Why do we decorate a tree inside our homes in the middle of winter? What are we celebrating? Explore the origins and evolution of these and other holiday customs. Presenter: James Pietrusz is a retired high school Enlgish teacher, who taught in Milwaukee Public Schools for over 30 years. One of his favorite courses was World Literature which covered themes from many cultures, from the ancient past to present.
