Parades for All Occasions is a Pop-Up Processional Created by You! Join us for a workshop and ensuing parade in downtown!

Parades for All Occasions is here for all of your pop-up processional needs! Come visit our Library of Everyday and Extraordinary things. With the help of friends and strangers, you can design the mini-parade of your dreams!! Using our selection of paper mache objects, and a little imagination, you’re sure to find* symbols for anything you wish to celebrate—be that fruit, friendship, or frivolity.

*If not, you can always make a suggestion for the library’s ever-expanding archive of the quotidian.

See below for scheduled appearances and keep your eyes peeled for surprise interventions throughout the first weekend of the festival.

Parade: 3:30 PM at Silver Lake Brewing Project

Participants will choose colorful paper-mache objects from the Library of Everyday and Extraordinary Things and carry them high in the air as we process from the Silver Lake Brewing Project, down Main Street, and back! Gather at 3:30 pm to choose an object, discuss what we’re celebrating, and design our procession.

Free to attend!
