Parade Workshops
For five weeks prior to Parade the Circle, participants create their own costumes, masks, and giant puppets at Cleveland Museum of Art public workshops or their own locations. No written words, logos, motorized vehicles (except wheelchairs), or live animals; entries should not propagandize a particular political or religious belief.
Public Workshops
Create your parade entry at public workshops at the museum. A workshop pass (individuals $50; families $150 up to 4 people, $25 each additional person) entitles you to attend all workshops. Workshops are open to all ages; children under 15 must register and attend with someone older. Registration fees include parade entry fee. Group rates and scholarship assistance are available.
Basic Workshops
Artists assist participants in making masks, costumes, and giant puppets using papier-mâché, cloth, and recycled materials. Public workshops begin May 3, 2013 and continue until the parade on June 8:
Fridays, May 3–June 7, 6:00–9:00 p.m.
Saturdays, May 4–June 1, 1:30–4:30 p.m.
Sundays, May 5–June 2, 1:30–4:30 p.m.
