BE ART. Everybody loves a parade, right? Join the Fountain Square Art Parade and be a part of a moving work of art. Build a float, wear an outfit, make a statement. Or just watch the art move...and maybe even move you. The parade starts after Masterpiece in a Day, so there's no reason not to participate in both events (and with a little extra help, you can be a vendor at the Fountain Square Art Fair too). The rules simple: whatever you do has to be family-friendly, and has to be able to move along the entire parade route. And it doesn't cost a thing to participate.

Call for Participation

The Fountain Square Arts Council invites you to join hundreds of neighborhood residents, artists, musicians, and more at the 2011 Fountain Square Art Parade.

The parade is a platform for presenting artwork in the public sphere. We encourage groups and organizations, family and friends, poultry, and creative individuals to sign up. The parade showcases contemporary artworks of all sizes and shapes that celebrates parades, street pageantry, and community. This is an all-ages event.

Anyone can participate! Register here.

The parade will start at Southeast Community Services, 901 Shelby Street, and proceed south on Shelby to Prospect Street, then east on Prospect to Spruce Street, north on Spruce to Woodlawn Avenue, West on Woodlawn to Shelby, and north on Shelby to Southeast Community Services, where the parade will end.

The Fountain Square Art Parade is part of Art Squared, a celebration of art in Fountain Square. Three free art events on one fantastic September day, Saturday, September 17, 2011. More info at DiscoverFountainSquare.com.

Art Squared. Make art. Buy art. Be art.
