ARTmoves Parade

Join us for the 2011 ARTmoves parade being held on Saturday, June 4 at 1:00pm. The parade route has grown to wrap around Landmark Plaza. Look for the parade as it winds its way up Saint Peter Street!

Children, adults and families wind their way through the Festival grounds in the ARTmoves Parade with giant puppets, kites and flags, music, ARTbikes, or any performance art concept they can dream up. The parade is open to all to participate and is built on a foundation of units created in after school programs in schools and community centers.  The ARTmoves Parade is the highlight of the Festival for everyone involved; the parade route fills quickly with families and friends scrambling for a spot from which to view the parade.  The ARTmoves Parade is an exploration of the imagination with art in movement.
