GRAND TRAVERSE EARTH DAY PARADE 2007!
Earth Day Community Art Studio & Workshop Schedule
It takes a whole village — and then some — to put together an Earth Day Parade and Community Picnic. This years’ theme is “Global Warming: The Tipping Point”. If you want to plan, brainstorm, organize, fundraise, give money and/or supplies, sculpt, sew, papier-mâché, staple, build, paint, cook food, usher, clean up, sing songs, play music, or dance please join us! Contact our Volunteer Coordinator: Robin Nance at nance@chartermi.net or 231-947-3096
EARTH DAY PUBLIC WORKSHOPS:
Help build the puppets for the parade! Workshops are low-cost to free and open to the public. For a month of weekends, beginning March 24th through Earth Day, April 21st, the Art Center of Traverse City will be transormed into a giant studio where Little Artshram and Rhythmic Adventures and volunteers create the Earth Day Parade. Workshop times: Fridays 5-9 PM, Sat. 12-5 PM, Sun. 12-5 PM.
We will be posting more information about the weekend workshops on this blog–so check back!
