Procession of the Species

Friday, April 24 @ 8:30 p.m.–9:30 p.m.

Recurring Event (See all)

Created by the community for the community the Procession of the Species Celebration is a joyous, artistic pageant, embracing the languages of art, music and dance to inspire learning, appreciation and protection of the natural world. The intent of the Procession is to elevate the dignity of the human spirit by enhancing the cultural exchange that we have with each other and with the natural world… and to do that through imagination, creation, and sharing.

Participation Rules – We Only Have Three!

The three rules inspire, nourish, and protect the Procession’s cultural evolution of imagination, creation, and sharing.

-No written or spoken words. We use no words, symbols or lyrics in our art, music or dance.

-No pets or live animals. We have no live animals in the Procession, with the exception of Service Animals.

– No motorized vehicles. We do not motorize our creations which includes the use of musical amplification. Of course, a motorized wheelchair is certainly permitted.
