Guest post: Occidental Fools Parade

Come at noon to the parking lot of the Occidental Community Center to sketch people getting ready for parade, which starts at 1pm. Walk in the parade while sketching, or sit on the street and watch. To sketch people in costume, there’s no better setting. (Some sketchers will be in costume too.) The Hubbub Club band and other groups will provide live music, with food, a talent show, and more. It’s all totally foolish and fun. What better excuse do you need to get out of the city and go exploring in Sonoma county?

There are people to direct traffic and help with parking nearby.

I will be there in my tutu at noon and later walking in the parade. We can meet back in the same parking lot of the Community Center after the parade to see presentations by Zero the Clown and others on the Podium of Impossibility and meet to share sketches. -Susan Cornelis
